Visual guide for teaching inference skills, illustrating how text clues and personal schema combine to form inferences.

- Clues from the text: The passage mentions a character who is always late for meetings and forgets important deadlines.
- Schema from my head: People who are consistently late and forgetful often struggle with time management or have disorganized habits.
- My inferences: This character likely has poor organizational skills and may benefit from using reminders or a planner to stay on track.

- Clues from the text: The story describes a child who smiles broadly every time they see a dog, even if it’s a stranger’s pet.
- Schema from my head: Children who react positively to animals usually enjoy their company and feel safe around them.
- My inferences: The child probably loves dogs and feels comforted or happy in their presence, suggesting a gentle and affectionate nature.
