Charades for Inferencing
Activity Purpose: What is an Inference?


Used as an activity to pre-teach inferencing
We use “clues” and “what we know” to make an
inference
How Activity Works


Give students premade flashcards with situations/actions
(maybe include weekly vocabulary)
Example: “The treasurer is stealing the King’s money”


Inform students of the vocabulary word
Student actor(s) act(s) out the situation on the card and
classmates make inferences to guess the situation and the
vocabulary word
