Knowledge and Skills Statement

Comprehension skills: listening, speaking, reading, writing, and thinking using multiple texts. The student uses metacognitive skills to both develop and deepen comprehension of increasingly complex texts.

Deles a los estudiantes distintos poemas que contengan diferentes recursos estructurales y sonoros (versos, estrofas, puntuación, rima, repetición, onomatopeya, etc.). Luego pídales que analicen los poemas y traten de identificar en ellos alguno de los componentes estructurales o sonoros cuya definición ha escrito y explicado en un cartel. Luego de identificarlos, los estudiantes infieren el efecto que tienen en el lector recursos como repetición, rima u onomatopeyas. Cada equipo presenta a la clase su poema, resaltando los recursos y elementos empleados. Tome nota y participe si es necesario.


Further Explanation

Los estudiantes identifican los diferentes recursos sonoros y estructurales que se presentan en los poemas. Hacen inferencias acerca de lo que representa en el poema y en el lector el empleo de estos recursos.

a conclusion, generalization, or prediction that results from examining various details and pieces of information and connecting them with background knowledge to determine meaning; to make a logical guess
Readers must be able to make inferences within and beyond a text to draw conclusions about information or ideas not explicitly stated in the text. Students should be able to use context presented in the text, prior knowledge or experience, text features, and/or other comprehension tools to make reasonable, logical assumptions about the intended meaning in a text. For example, if a character’s reaction to looking at a school report card is to smile, students could infer that the character is pleased with his or her grades even if the author never states that explicitly.
Students should consider the context presented in a text, their prior knowledge or experience, text features, and/or other comprehension tools to make reasonable, logical assumptions about the intended meaning in a text. Evidence that justifies students’ comprehension can be any relevant details, facts, or information that help students understand what they are reading.
Forma de razonamiento que a partir de conectar partes de información permite concluir algo de manera lógica. Los lectores pueden hacer inferencias llegando a conclusiones, haciendo generalizaciones y predicciones.

Research

1. Nokes, J. D. (2008). The observation/inference chart: improving student's abilities to make inferences while reading nontraditional texts: paintings, movies, historical artifacts, and other nontraditional texts are easier to understand when students are skilled in making inferences. These skills transfer to traditional texts as well. Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, 51(7), 538+.

Summary: The author demonstrates how an observation/inference chart can help inexperience readers make good inferences. The author explains how to observe and make inferences from those observations, provides examples of modeling making inferences, and gives examples to support both guided practice for students and students' individual practice. Although the study was conducted on secondary students, the process can be adapted to primary classrooms.

Summary: The findings of this research suggest that third and fourth grade students should first attain and enhance their knowledge of reading strategies through teacher modeling. Then, they should learn how reading strategies are used and verbalized. After these steps, students can learn to apply this knowledge when reading. The more often a student uses the strategies, the more internalized the strategies become.
