Can You Make an Inference?

Reading is not just about receiving information, but an exchange between writer and reader. In this worksheet, students will practice making inferences about the characters, setting, and events based on clues in the passage. Using the framework of a puzzle, readers will piece together what the author is writing about based on clues and what they already know. Designed for third graders, this worksheet supports students as they learn to make thoughtful, logical inferences about the works of fiction they read.
