The cornerstone of comprehension, making inferences, becomes tangible for students with language-learning disorders. Students examine what they hear for a variety of clues and make meaningful connections to what they know.
Students learn to reason and make logical inferences with this progression in activities:
- answer where and when questions with picture supports
- answer what, why, and how questions with picture supports
- make inferences about feelings using picture supports
- make predictions with picture supports
- answer wh- and how questions about what is read
- understand nonverbal language using picture supports
- make inferences from the speaker's volume and speaking style
- make inferences from what is heard
Written in the proven format of the Spotlight series, these activities help students develop listening skills with:
- picture-supported lessons that shift to listening-only activities
- carefully controlled vocabulary
- a wide variety of curricular content as well as daily life experiences
- minimal demands for writing
