Grades: 3,4

Description: Inferences and predictions are very closely related. Both require students to use evidence, background knowledge, to make an educated guess. The difference lies in one discusses future events (prediction), while another (inference) is created around an analysis based on evidence and clues. Students are engaged in a quick story where they must gather monsters by answering questions correctly. They need enough monsters to defeat the evil Stenchsoul. This gives students a little extra motivation to persist with the work.
