The first two pictures here are the poem. It is my understanding this version is written as it was originally by the author.
Below you will find four pages with 6 inferencing cards on each page (total of 24 inferencing questions). The object is for the student/client to use their background knowlege, life experiences, context clues, and any other great tricks up their sleeves to answer these questions.
I added a blank cards template page for 2 reasons:
1) you can use this to create your own questions and tailor it to your own needs
2) you can have your students use these cards to draw pictures of what is happening in the poem that relates to these questions so by the end of the session (or sessions) your child has their own booklete of this story they created themselves to help them visually recall, sequence and retell the story to you and to others
I hope you enjoy this activity as much as I enjoyed creating it! Have other ways to use this activity? Comment below so we can all can take advantage of your great ideas!

In addition to being a great activity for figurative language, I will use this activity for my students working on /s/ and /r/ sounds at the sentence and reading levels. Thanks SO much!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea targeting articulation sounds at sentence level and in reading! Thanks for sharing!
DeleteAwww this is such a brilliant idea! Last year we did something similar, but we choose some short Christmas poems to insert in cards and served as gift to friends and family.
