The students took the books home after the session.Strategies used during the narrative intervention:Lead think-alouds about the bookPointed out story elementsDiscussed challenging vocabulary wordsAnswered comprehension questionsHelped children with story retellAdlof, S.

This study showed working on tier 2 vocabulary words in a systematic way can help students build vocabulary knowledge and transfer into their classrooms.Spencer, S., Clegg, J., Lowe, H., & Stackhouse, J.

It is a process that helps the child engage with the story.The SLP would show the students the cover of the book and ask the children what they think the story is about.Then, while reading the story, the SLP would stop and ask questions. Some of the questions included inferential questions such as “What do you think John is going to do with his tools?”.The SLPs used a book for two sessions and scaffolded supportwhen a child gave an incorrect response.After 10 weeks, they found that the children increased with the quality of their answers. They used a rubric to score answers.Desmarais, C., Nadeau, L., Trudeau, N., Filiatrault-Veilleux, P., & Maxes-Fournier, C. (2013).

Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics, 27, 540–552 24Let’s PracticeDialogic ReadingTeaching Inferencing Helped Students With Reading Comprehension For Both Students With Adequate Decoding Skills And Those With Weaker Decoding Skills.This study results came from 2nd-9th grade inference interventions.They identified seven primary types of inference instruction. The most commonly used were:using text clues (finding clues from the text to create a logical answer).background knowledge (using background knowledge to make guesses aboutwhat the text isn’t explicitly saying).The study found students made moderate to large gains on reading comprehension and the less skilled readers also made gains with their decoding.Intervention happening in small groups vs. whole class had better learning outcomes. Many students showed positive results to this intervention in a short amount of time (i.e. less than 10 hours).Elleman, A. (2017).

Or pick a certain topic and brainstorm what you know about the topic. For example, discuss eating at a restaurant or sitting in traffic. background knowledge and cluesTeaching Inferencing Using Books2829Teach Inferential VocabularyOnce your student understands how to look for clues and apply background knowledge, you can have your students work on understanding and using inference vocabulary. 30Teaching StoryElements 31174040757538Story ElementsEach student gets a job to share about the book.Give each student a couple of storyelement cards. 5440681528091They have to identify the story element while being read the book.32Use Ornie the Pig to teach story elementsTime to Create Book Companion Cheat Sheets34 Brainstorm With Your GroupIdentify tier II vocabulary words and create kid friendly definitions (word hippo is awesome).Brainstorm inferential questions to ask while reading the story.Label the story elements from the story.
