Aimed at lower key stage 2 classes to boost inference skills. Each activity has 5/6 questions based on a short text. How I use the resource: Allow children to read text independently and identify words they are unsure of. Discuss new vocabulary and allow children to use dictionary if needed. Children can begin answering questions - encourage them to underline or highlight parts of the text which give them clues to the answer. Go through questions together as a class or with a partner and compare answers.
