- 30 carefully structured exercises (over 90 pages) using short extracts taken verbatim from classic literature.โฃ
- Explicit, step-by-step teaching to help pupils understand how to make inferences rather than simply guess the answers.โฃ
- A combination of multiple-choice and written-answer questions, encouraging pupils to explain their thinking using evidence from the text.โฃ
- Longer comprehension exercises that bring different inference skills together and prepare pupils for exam-style questions.โฃ
โฃThe aim is to help pupils move beyond vague answers and develop the ability to interpret texts, identify clues and support their answers with clear textual evidence.โฃ
Both Inferring Classics โ Book 1 and Book 2 are designed to complement comprehension workbooks and exam papers, helping pupils bridge the gap between reading a text and answering inference questions effectively.โฃ
