Description
What It Is:
This is an educational worksheet focused on using introductory phrases in inferences. It presents three short passages about César Chávez, Shakespeare, and Alvin Ailey. Students are asked to identify what is stated in the text, make an inference based on the text, and then provide text evidence with an introductory phrase to support their inference. The worksheet includes a graphic organizer to help students structure their answers.
Grade Level Suitability:
This worksheet is suitable for grades 6-8. The passages are relatively short and the concept of making inferences is introduced with clear instructions. The task of using introductory phrases adds a layer of complexity appropriate for middle school students.

In the 'As stated in the text' column, summarize the key information. In the 'According to the text' column, write your inference. Finally, in the 'Based on the text' column, write a sentence from the text with an introductory phrase that supports your inference.
