Deconstructing What You Know

Worksheet Description

Ignite your students’ analytical prowess with our “Drawing Conclusions” worksheet.

Designed to enhance critical thinking and inference skills, this activity empowers students to connect textual cues with their own knowledge to draw insightful conclusions.

After reading the assigned text, students will engage with a structured table. In the “Clues from the Text” column, they’ll jot down the textual evidence that caught their attention. Then, in the “What I Know in My Mind” column, they’ll incorporate their existing knowledge. Lastly, in the “My Conclusion Is” column, they’ll synthesize these elements to formulate a well-founded inference.

This exercise hones deductive reasoning, enriches comprehension abilities, and nurtures independent thinking.
