  1. INFER:To make meaning by adding what you know (schema) to what you read (text).

  2. An inference is like a BUILDING:Pieces from the TEXT are bricks.Pieces from your SCHEMA (background knowledge) arethe mortar.

  3. Bricks (text info) without mortar(your schema) • are • too weak to make an solid inference.

  4. Inferences without both text &schema fall flat.

  5. A good inference is always supported by text info (bricks) plus schema (mortar).

  6. When you read: “Dad told me that I’d be fine as long as I never depended on anybody but myself…He said the government was after us ever since I could remember… The shelter we lived in was set miles into a forest…a place no person besides us had any cause to be.” (Alabama Moon, Watt Key) What does the text tell you? (just the ‘bricks’--only the text)

  7. We have text info (thebricks) let’s add schema (our mortar). What do we think we know about… -people who think independence is important? -people who think the government is after them? -people who live out in the woods? • a place where nobody else has a reason to be? • -fathers and sons?

  8. Now that we have our text and schema, lets put these bricks and mortar together to make some inferences:

  9. Inferences with good text(brick)&schema (mortar) support stand ontheir own.
