Read
Read between the lines
Read between the lines joins a clue in the text to what pupils already know, to say what the writer leaves unsaid: it says, I know, so.
The real slide Chalk makes, in the Classroom look. Every word is written for your lesson when you use it.
How to run it
- Read the clue together.
- Pupils add what they know, then what it tells them.
- Compare two different readings.
Why it works
Teaching inference explicitly improved understanding for skilled and weaker readers alike.
