Mystery Writing Lesson
This document provides a guided outline for writing a mystery story in 17 steps. It prompts the writer to describe scenes such as arriving home from school, receiving a mysterious phone call asking for help solving a crime, investigating clues and interrogating suspects at a crime scene, and ultimately identifying and confronting the culprit. The writer is guided to include dialogue, sensory details, clues, and a dramatic conclusion to reveal "whodunit".
Mystery #2
This lesson is designed to help people write a rough draft of a mystery even if they have no idea where to begin. It helps if mystery ideas are brainstormed before starting.
Prediction And Inference
Prediction involves guessing what will happen in a text based on clues, while inference uses clues to draw conclusions about characters and events that may or may not be confirmed. When predicting, the reader focuses on what will occur, but when inferring the reader considers how characters feel and their motivations. Both prediction and inference require questioning oneself before and during reading, but inference allows for more open-ended questions. The document provides guidance on when and how to make predictions and inferences to improve reading comprehension.
Teaching inference
The document provides guidance for teaching inference skills to students. It discusses using explicit instruction, modeling, scaffolding and facilitating to teach inference. It defines inference as going beyond surface details to understand implied meanings. Types of inferences skilled readers make are recognizing pronouns, providing explanations, figuring out word meanings from context, understanding author's viewpoint, and relating to background knowledge. The document suggests comments teachers can make to help students practice different types of inferences using examples from picture books.
Making inferences
Inference involves using clues from a text to draw conclusions, even if they are not directly stated. It differs from prediction in that inferences made may or may not be resolved by the end of the story, while predictions will be answered. To make inferences, readers must ask questions as they read to determine characters' feelings, motives for actions, and other implications not explicitly stated. Frequent questioning aids inference and ensures comprehension of the full meaning.
Making inferences ppt lesson
This document provides guidance on making inferences and includes examples using excerpts from the book "Virus on Orbis 1". It explains that making an inference involves combining what is seen in the text with prior knowledge to draw conclusions and predictions.

The purpose is to prepare students for the TAKS reading test through a cross-curricular lesson developed by the school librarian.
Mystery
The document provides writing prompts to help generate a mystery story in 14 parts. It begins with the protagonist relaxing at home when they receive a call from a witness to a crime asking for help. They go to the scene and investigate clues, questioning three suspects. During interrogation, the protagonist notices something suspicious and discovers another clue. They realize one of the suspects is guilty and try to confront them, but all three suspects try to escape. After a struggle, the guilty suspect confesses and provides a motive, allowing the protagonist to solve the case.
Conflict Creative Task PPT Presentation
This document provides guidance on writing a short story focused on conflict. It suggests choosing between an individual in conflict with the self, others, or society. Themes of power, fear, violence, and difference should be considered. The writer is tasked with choosing a point of view inspired by an image, and telling the backstory of their chosen character in third person, leading up to the climactic image. Steps are outlined for planning the plot, starting with action, building tension through sensory details, and ending with thematic closure and a strong concluding image or line of dialogue. Graphing the plot events is also recommended.

Making inferences and drawing conclusions
The document provides information about making inferences and drawing conclusions when reading.

Making inferences
This document provides information about making inferences when reading. It defines an inference as making a logical guess by gathering clues and reading between the lines to reach conclusions based on evidence. It instructs readers to ask questions as they read, think about what the author tells them and their own experiences to make inferences. The document explains that using inferences supports deeper comprehension by engaging readers and helping them understand an author's purpose and meaning. It provides suggestions for teachers to help less skilled readers learn to make inferences, such as recognizing pronouns and context clues, and understanding characters' perspectives. Examples of comics are included to demonstrate practicing inferences by explaining humor or identifying missing information.
Prediction And Inference
Prediction involves guessing what will happen next in a story based on clues, while inference uses clues to draw conclusions about characters and events that may or may not be confirmed. When predicting, the reader focuses on what will occur in the future of the story. Inference allows readers to question why characters act in certain ways and speculate on other unanswered elements. Readers can practice both strategies by asking questions before, during, and after reading a text.
Interpretative Comprehension
This document discusses different levels of comprehension when reading: literal comprehension involves recalling facts while interpretative comprehension involves inferring implied meanings, drawing conclusions, and reading between the lines.

It involves using one's background knowledge along with evidence in the text. Inferring, questioning, and predicting work together to build understanding. The document provides examples of how to teach students to infer and gives suggestions for starting inferring practice using comics, riddles, poetry and other media. It also discusses the role of inference in interpreting different text types like fiction, nonfiction, and cartoons.
Making inferences
The document discusses making inferences by using clues from text, pictures, or prior knowledge to draw conclusions.

Readers are encouraged to practice making inferences to improve this critical reading skill.
Prediction and inference 4th grade

Strategies - reading
This document discusses the reading strategies of predicting and inferring. It defines predicting as making an educated guess about what will happen based on clues, while inferring uses clues to draw conclusions that may or may not be directly answered in the text. The key differences are that predictions will be proven or disproven by the end of the text, while inferences may or may not be resolved. The document provides questions readers can ask themselves to make predictions before and during reading, and to make inferences during reading to check their comprehension.
Inferencing
Inferencing involves finding clues, putting them together to solve problems like puzzles. The document provides examples of inferencing like solving riddles, answering questions, and reading.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
