If you see someone eating a new food and he or she makes a nasty expression, what does that mean? Take a few minutes and write down what you infer. Take an educated guess.

If you see somone crying and screaming, what does that mean?  Take a few minutes and write down your educated guess. 

If you see someone smiling and laughing, what can you say about that person?

Now take a few minutes and think about an inference you have made today or yesterday. ]]> 2020-07-22 00:50:50 UTC https://padlet.com/ordazr11/9grs8v1xkqbkblzr/wish/659666524 ordazr11 https://padlet.com/ordazr11/9grs8v1xkqbkblzr/wish/659671500 More About Inferences ]]> 2020-07-22 00:57:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ordazr11/9grs8v1xkqbkblzr/wish/659671500 ordazr11 https://padlet.com/ordazr11/9grs8v1xkqbkblzr/wish/659807557 1.)
