Inferring Classics Book 2 - by Dolly Jain

While Book 1 focuses on inferring character traits, background and setting, feelings and emotions, Book 2 takes pupils further by focusing on three different inference skills:⁣

- 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐫 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭⁣

- 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐃𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐮𝐞⁣

- 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬⁣

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐬 – 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝟐 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫?⁣

- 30 carefully structured exercises (over 90 pages) using short extracts taken verbatim from classic literature.⁣

- Explicit, step-by-step teaching to help pupils understand how to make inferences rather than simply guess the answers.⁣

- A combination of multiple-choice and written-answer questions, encouraging pupils to explain their thinking using evidence from the text.⁣

- Longer comprehension exercises that bring different inference skills together and prepare pupils for exam-style questions.⁣

⁣The aim is to help pupils move beyond vague answers and develop the ability to interpret texts, identify clues and support their answers with clear textual evidence.⁣

Both Inferring Classics – Book 1 and Book 2 are designed to complement comprehension workbooks and exam papers, helping pupils bridge the gap between reading a text and answering inference questions effectively.⁣
