J-rap Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 ...you have to come up with conclusions (by answering multiple choice questions) based on those facts. So, the specific answers are not in the articles; you would have to gather the facts in the article and choose the most logical conclusions. Workbooks around 5th-8th grade level, related to science, history, health, news, etc. (instead of just stories). 1 Quote
Momto6inIN Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 So you mean practicing making inferences? I think CTC has some books, called something along the lines of Inference Jones or something like that. Not sure what age range they're for. 2 Quote

RenaInTexas Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 The Comprehending Texts series does this. It starts with an article, then presents the questions in four sections. The first is Literal (finding facts), next is Inferential, then Applied, and finally Synthesizing. Books are ~$15. 1 Quote
