- Learn how to make inferences in literature, nonfiction and real life, and to support those inferences with strong, reliable evidence.
An inference is just coming to a logical conclusion from whatever evidence you have. It’s one of the most valuable thinking skills you can learn.
The ability to make inferences is one of the things that make a person what we call “smart.” And we say the person who can’t make inferences is “a little slow on the uptake,” right?, because other people figure out what’s going on more quickly than he or she does. We have to spell things out explicitly for that person.
So, when your teacher says he or she is going to help you learn how to make good inferences, imagine in your head that he or just said that you’re going to learn how to be smart today. You’re going to learn how to think, because, ultimately, that’s what making inferences is all about.

I teach 6th grade ELA in a Title 1 school, and I truly appreciate this video by Mr. Sato. Thank you.
First time i see teacher comment!?😯
Thanks for this, my English teacher assigned this as well as 10 other things. 🥲
I love you...I am very interested in education and why we teach Literature. You make so much sense and I can get quite angry at teachers who do not make it relevant or interesting...thank you from a new found fan. XX
Thank you, Mr. Sato, for your wonderfully interesting and straight-forward videos. I am using every one in my English class as I try to flip the classroom. Hope to see more from you. Irony would be great to see next. Again, thank you!
Thank you for your kind comment, Stacey! Good idea about making a vid on irony, but in the meantime, I touch on irony in the satire and figurative language videos.
Great video! Thanks for the lesson.
Mr. Sato, you're great! Wish I had you as an English tutor.
Good 🎉😢😮
Is it funny that I learned more in this ELA video than any of the math videos I’ve seen.
This video is so good to learn infrences
I DEFENITLEY SUPPORT THE NINJA CATS THEORY
That poor boi is only guilty of not being able to single pawdedly fight off three ninja cats.
If he looked guilty, he might be guilty about not being able to fight of the ninja cats

No
YEAH ME TO
my perspective about thinking has changed
i think.....
thanks for helping
wow good info
"Reading between the lines" has its place but I don't try to do it because it's a great way to make major mistakes in interpretation. Reading between the lines is a great way to miss the actual lines.
You’re awesome 👏 thank you for making videos.
Great lesson. Thank you so much
Glad you liked it!
My children enjoyed your video! Well Done!
Thank you, Stephanie. I'm so glad they liked it!
boy this is awsome from her son
I love this thank you
You’re welcome 😊
thanks pete
Like how half of these comments are from thanking a teacher or have some kind of spelling error
I like your video
Amazing
Serious rightneow ✈️✈️✈️
The one about the restaurant opening next to a gym assumes that ppl who go to the gym eat healthy food and that they prefer the convenience of eating at a restaurant.
Yes, making inferences involves accepting some assumptions that may be incorrect. That's part of the bravery of making inferences, taking a risk, drawing a conclusion at the risk of being wrong!
if y'all from Good's class see this i hope you're having a great day
Dang I am in class but you look cute
I bet you but bigg
excellent video
Thanks!
Good morning 🌞
these visuals though...
It's not Theories...they are hypotheses!!
imma be smart :)
It’s like

Bros so funny
He's not a teacher who thinks they're fitting into the newer kid's kind of society and is cool.
He's just teaching, not knowing he is fitting into the newer kid's society.
Me: The Cat Ninjas did it
The dog: I framed the ninja cats to make it look like they framed me so i find fake evidence and use it to frame them for framing me to try to frame me to frame them
this isnt an impossible theory... the dog looks actually guitly>=..
Bros so funny
haha ninja cats go brrrrrr
That’s a little bit funny

I'll read the quote and decide that it doesn't support your inference. That's your idea of evidence? It won't work for me. That's evidence of a sackful of nothing. That's not evidence of anything remotely connected to your claim.
Is the narrator James Woods??
OK, you say you think it therefore it's evidence. Sorry. That won't work. You think it means you believe it. That doesn't make it a fact. That makes it your belief. I don't accept your belief. I believe something entirely different that what you believe. Your belief is not evidence of anything that comes close to supporting your inference or your claim.
you could say its base on your own imagination. your logic or the way you view things could be fallicious or fautly(dont know the word).
_He never said that his belief in something was the evidence in a specific topic. He is looking at the evidence at the atmosphere, how the_ _objects come in contact with _*_WHAT YOU THINK_*_ happened, etc. But it is a prediction wherein in one of his examples, the dog chewed up the_
_cereal box. He was explaining how everything worked out. However, he did not say anything about his belief becoming evidence in a situation._
but I am stupid not smart

The dislikes are probably for the people who's teachers made them watch it.lol

This was great until the last few seconds where it says people who make inferences are "smart" and those who can't make inferences are "slow".
I went from liking the video to thumbs down, removing it from my watch later saved list, and unsubscribing.
I do not want the kids to accidentally see that ending.
There are many "smart" people that have trouble making inferences, yet they can talk your ear off about molecular biology. (Ever watch Sheldon on the Big Bang?!?)
I wanted to help my child learn more about making inferences. He is 2 years ahead in math. Was reading full books as a toddler. Tested gifted. But he's very literal and has trouble reading between the lines sometimes.
I would hate for him to think he's "slow" or "not smart" if he listens to this video in it's entirety.
Honestly, the whole concept of smart is horrible. I don't tell my kid is smart, because that could actually create a fear of failing if he encounters something more difficult. It is not a motivational word. But he knows his peers aren't as good at math as he is. There are lots of adjectives that can make a child feel special and keep them motivated. Research has shown "smart" is not one of those words.
But I also would never ever ever tell him he's slow. He's not! So, I would never want him to think that he's slow just because he struggles with reading between the lines, no matter how hard he tries. And I certainly wouldn't want him to hear that in a youtube video.
He is wired differently and that's okay! So am I !!! We have things we excel at and we have things we learn about more and more every day.
Please consider changing the end of this presentation. Everything else in the video was good, except the last few lines.
Please consider using non-ableist terminology to encourage your viewers to practice making inferences.
Thank you for your perspective, SleepyGamer Girl. You have given me something to think about.
i dont fucking understand nathing
Real
Amazing
Thanks
