AUSTIN, BEN, BRITTANY!

MAKING INFERENCES A logical guess based on evidence! EXAMPLE- Before a policeman can break down a door, and burst into a residence he must have authority!

EVALUATING Process of judging the quality of something or someone! EXAMPLE- In the story GOLDILOCKS AND THE THREE BEARS- are the characters believable OR are they hard to believe?

PARAPHRASING Restating an author’s idea using your own words. EXAMPLE- ORIGINAL- The cards below have serious flaws that reduce their value. PARAPHRASED- These cards have problems that make them worth less money!

PREDICTING Using what you already know to make a logical guess about what might happen later on! EXAMPLE- Like fortune tellers they are always predicting what might happen later on in your life!

SUMMARIZING Telling the main ideas of a piece of writing ; but in your own words! EXAMPLE- In the story CINDERELLA the little girl dreams of all kinds of things but her evil step sisters always put her down until her fairy god mother appears and grants her wish to send her to the ball. And before long Cinderella is living with the Prince!

A point by point comparison between two different things in order to clarify the less familiar of the two. Fluid is to solid as trapped is to free.

Two events are related as cause and effect if one brings about-or causes-the other. The event that happens first is the cause; the one that follows from it is the effect. Cause-your out of gas. Effect-your car won’t start.

*Chronological order is the order in which events happen in time. *In some stories and articles, events are related in chronological order. *My life is in chronological order.
