Sample worksheet activity
Choose evidence that directly supports an inference.
Coastal grasses have deep roots that hold loose sand in place. During storms, the plants slow wind near the ground and trap moving sand. Protecting these grasses can help dunes remain stable. Which detail best supports this inference: “Removing many grasses could make a dune less stable.”
○ Late returns decreased after the box was installed.
○ Their roots hold sand and the plants trap moving grains.
○ Soil and plants hold some rain where it falls.
Tariq’s first map used tiny labels that his classmates could not read. He enlarged the labels, added a key, and asked two classmates to test the revision. Both could follow the route without help. Which detail best supports this inference: “Tariq treated confusion as information he could use.”
○ After the revision, two classmates followed the route without help.
○ The character’s decision became easier to understand after the pause was added.
○ Their roots hold sand and the plants trap moving grains.
The school considered replacing a paved corner with a rain garden. A paved surface sends water quickly toward drains, while soil and plants hold some rain where it falls. The garden would require care but could reduce runoff. Which detail best supports this inference: “The decision involves both benefits and responsibilities.”
○ More riders felt comfortable after lighting was added and shrubs were trimmed.
○ Soil and plants hold some rain where it falls.
○ After the revision, two classmates followed the route without help.
During rehearsal, the actors rushed an important scene. The director asked them to pause before the final line and hold their positions afterward. The slower pacing made the character’s decision easier to understand. Which detail best supports this inference: “The original performance did not give the audience enough time to process the decision.”
○ After the revision, two classmates followed the route without help.
○ Soil and plants hold some rain where it falls.
○ The character’s decision became easier to understand after the pause was added.
A neighborhood library noticed that evening visitors often returned books after the desk closed. Staff installed a secure return box beside the entrance and tracked its use for a month. Late returns decreased, and staff kept the box. Which detail best supports this inference: “The library used results rather than guesswork to judge the change.”
○ The identical sunny container lost water faster than the shaded one.
○ Late returns decreased after the box was installed.
○ Soil and plants hold some rain where it falls.
Researchers placed identical containers in sun and shade, added equal amounts of water, and measured them each day. The sunny container lost water faster. The controlled setup helped isolate sunlight as a factor. Which detail best supports this inference: “Keeping the containers and starting water equal made the comparison fairer.”
○ More riders felt comfortable after lighting was added and shrubs were trimmed.
○ Soil and plants hold some rain where it falls.
○ The identical sunny container lost water faster than the shaded one.
