This week we're going to be reviewing key Language terms used to break down/analyze narratives (whether in written stories or film)! Our third one is 'Inferring/Inferencing', which takes clues from a story and has the reader/viewer figure out for themselves (using these clues and their own knowledge to come up with a conclusion)!

Below there's an example we used earlier this year on a short story called 'The Case of the Murdered Husband'. If you don't remember it (or the 'Must Sees' of an Inference), check it out again! You can also re-read the story from the Padlet link.

After reviewing what an 'Inference' needs, read one of the following short stories below! There's five options, each with an Inference question at the end. Try and solve the Inference question using clues from the story (and knowledge from your own experiences)! If you don't want to read, there's a real-life inferring activity also linked, called 'The Lost Colony of Roanoke Mystery'. Watch it and tell me what you think happened to this lost colony, using clues from the story and your own ideas!)

INFERRING REFLECTION ASSIGNMENT
What inference can you take from the story you chose? You'll be writing it out in a response (either voice recorded, written by hand with a picture/scan taken, or typed up using your choice of a variety of online programs), including...

- fours clues from the text/yourself
- explain how these clues support your inference

I've attached a graphic organizer below to help you, along with an electronic link!

Please turn in your work in our Language Arts section on Edmodo!

Today we're going to be working reflection or symmetrical art! We've already are used to a number of sites that helps us with this, such as...

WEAVESILK
http://weavesilk.com/

PIXEL ART
http://www.pixelator.co/

SYMMETRY ARTIST
https://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/symmetry-artist.html

...and we're going to be investigating a number of other sites that help us with this! (There are a number of high-quality artist examples of symmetrical work; remember that symmetry is shown in lines, and doesn't not need to be shown through colour!)

ISOMETRIC SYMMETRY
https://www.nctm.org/Classroom-Resources/Illuminations/Interactives/Isometric-Drawing-Tool/

Our work for today (after investigating the new sites) is to create a piece of symmetrical work using any of the online aids, and then using a drawing tool (such as pencil and paper in real life, or Sketch Toy online https://www.sketchtoy.com/ ) to trace it out and submit that! We'll be practicing this in our online classroom meeting today too!
