What is an example of making an inference to support comprehension? In three to five sentences, explain your answer. Be sure to provide a fact, observation and inference.

Answer 1

Fact: The grass is wet in the morning.

Observation: I see droplets of water on the blades of grass and the ground is damp.

Inference: It likely rained overnight or there was heavy dew, which means that the weather conditions may have been cool and humid. This inference helps me understand why the grass is wet and might also suggest that similar weather conditions could continue into the day.
