Inferences and Conclusions

The audience applauded as Yolanda

walked onto the stage with her violin.

She did not fi dget while the pianist

found the correct page of the score.

Yolanda squinted into the bright lights

of the auditorium. She couldn"t see her parents and friends, but she knew they were there supporting her. After a few rippling notes sounded on the piano,

Yolanda began to play. Her bow glided

across the strings as if it had a mind of its own.Next, use details and personal knowledge to make an inference. Finally, put the facts together to draw a conclusion about the passage. Remember: As you read, think about the details that the author presents. Compare them with what you already know about the subject or setting. Use your knowledge to make an inference or draw a conclusion about what is happening in the passage.First, decide what is happening in the passage. Look for details that set

Comprehension Strategy Assessment • Grade 6©2006 Benchmark Education Company, LLC82 For centuries, Native Americans of the Great Plains relied on wild buffalo herds for their food, shelter, and tools. In 1865, more than 12 million buffalo lived on the Great Plains. But then more and more settlers moved west. By 1890, most of these animals were gone. There were only 750 buffalo left. Fortunately, the number of buffalo has grown since then. The animal that we call buffalo is also called American bison. Today there are about 80,000 of these big, shaggy animals in the United States. They live in parks and reserves. One herd of free-ranging buffalo lives in Yellowstone National Park. "Free-ranging" means that the animals areallowed to roam throughout the park. This is their natural way of life. Many people hope that this herd will continue to grow. Some cattle ranchers who live near Yellowstone do not like having the buffalo there. They worrythat the buffalo could come onto their land and make their cattle sick. Because of this, the government has slaughtered more than 3,500 buffalo. But many people do not believe the buffalo can actually pass diseases to cattle. In 2003, a law was passed to make it harder for the government to kill buffalo. The buffalo once were the center of many Native Americans" way of life. They were the source of most of the things that these Native Americans needed to live. Protecting the buffalo is important. It preserves part of our natural history. Directions: Read the passage. Then use the information from the passage to answer questions 1-5.

Most people have heard of the Nobel Prizes. Some of the most talented people in the world receive these prizes, which honor great achievements in medicine, chemistry, and other fields. But not many people have heard of the Ig Nobel Prizes. The name is a pun on the word "ignoble." These prizes are given to people who do very strange work and whose studies might even be called a little goofy. The prizes were first given out in 1991, and they get more popular every year. All the prize winners were serious about their work when they did it. It 's just that the subjects they studied were a little odd. For example, one prize went to two scientists in Norway who discovered that sour cream makes le eches hungry. Another scientist studied toast because he wanted to know if it always lands butter side down when you drop it. Another prize went to the count ry of Liechtenstein for offering to rent the entire country out for weddings! The Ig Nobel Prize ceremony is held at Harvard University in Massachuset ts every October. Sometimes the people who receive the prizes aren't too happy about it, but usually they are good sports. Often they have to travel a very long way to get their prizes. When they receive them, they give a speech, but they can only speak for one minute. If they talk longer than that, they are b ooed. The Ig Nobel Prizes are kind of silly, but they have a somewhat serious goal of trying to encourage real science. Above all, they prove that science can be fun. One winner came up with a new way for men to comb their hair. Anoth er one studied how tadpoles taste when you eat them. No matter what the sub ject, these prizes show the lighter side of science.

4. The second paragraph mentions leeches. How can you tell from the paragra ph that a leech is a kind of animal instead of a rock? 5. Do you think most scientists would rather get a Nobel Prize or an Ig Nob el

explanatory writing author trying to accomplish in the first three? In the fourth? (author's craft) In the first three paragraphs, author Jane Bianchi describes sights and sounds that make Sunrise seem like any other day camp. In the fourth paragraph, she explains the difference: This is a camp for kids battling cancer and for their siblings.

What are two big challenges faced by kids

with cancer? How does Sunrise help? (problem and solution) Kids with cancer often undergo many medical treatments that disrupt their lives and leave them weak and tired. They sometimes feel different or misunderstood by their peers. At Sunrise, they're treated like normal kids. They participate in activities, but if they need to rest or take medications, they can do so without feeling singled out.

What money problems do families of kids

with cancer sometimes face? How does Sunrise help? (text evidence) Families pay large amounts of money for doctor visits, surgeries, and ambulance rides, even when they have health insurance. Some parents lose money by missing work or quitting their jobs to take care of their children. Sunrise is free, thanks to donations.

In what ways do the siblings of kids with

cancer struggle? How does Sunrise help them? (key detail) They often feel ignored when so much attention is focused on the sibling who's battling cancer. Sunrise gives them as much attention as they give their brother or sister and helps them understand their sibling's illness.

What is evidence of Sunrise"s success, beyond

“smiles of the campers"? (text evidence) Sunrise opened a second location in 2013, and the staff is helping other organizations open similar camps.

How have Kaela, Mara, and other St.

Baldrick"s “shavees" shown empathy for

children with cancer? (inference) By shaving their heads, they put themselves in the place of kids who have lost their hair from chemotherapy. They experience what it feels like to be bald. They also raise money and awareness for cancer research.

What key fact shows the success of the St.

Baldrick"s Foundation? (key detail) More than

$220 million has been raised since 1999.

Critical-Thinking Questions

are some important ideas about interacting with kids who have cancer? (evaluating) It's important to treat kids with cancer as normal kids who enjoy the same games and activities and have the same interests as everyone else. Take advantage of opportunities to be supportive, like the Sunrise counselors who wear hats and bandanas, or the St. Baldrick's participants who shave their heads and raise money. (inference) Empathy helps people feel understood and know thatquotesdbs_dbs4.pdfusesText_7
