🤩Word of the Week - Diving into the world of inference this week! 🔍 Our young detectives are learning to "infer" - which means coming to conclusions based on clues and evidence. Just like real-life mystery solvers, they're practicing how to read between the lines in stories and figure out what happened to characters even when it's not directly stated. "I had to use my detective skills to infer what happened to the character in our story today!" 🕵️‍♀️📚 It's amazing to see their little minds connecting dots and making smart guesses based on what they know! Practice at home and at school, and build your vocabulary! 😊

🧐Let's LEARN the Word of the Week: Argument
What is an Argument?
In a simple sense, an argument is when you give reasons or evidence to support your ideas. It's not about yelling or fighting; it's about explaining why you believe something to be true.

Example Sentence:
"The students presented a strong argument for why they should have more time for recess."
