Today was an exciting day in ELA. We talked about inferences and how we make them. Then, we began reading our first short story in the unit, "Patient Zero". To emphasize just how much inference goes on when we read, I had students dig to find as many inferences as possible in just the first paragraph, and we found so many that we didn't make it to the second!
We will continue reading tomorrow in class. This story has been my students' favorite in past years, and I am sure that 7A students will enjoy it this year as well. Can't wait!
