GRAMMAR
Introduction
Hello, grammarians! For this module, we will review our grammar standards. Today, we will be focusing on helping and linking verbs.
Helping verbs are verbs that come before the main verb in the sentence.

READING
Introduction
Hi Readers! Today we will be reviewing inferences. When a reader makes an inference, they have to think about what the author is saying in the text and then use background knowledge to make an inference. You can make inferences in everyday life, too!
For example, if you see someone eating something and then they make a face, then you can infer that the person does not like it. If someone slams a door, we can infer that they are mad about something.

In Your Notebook: Open a nonfiction text. Look at a picture. What can you infer the text will be about based on the picture you are seeing?
