Detective's Notebook Game

Do your students need practice or re-enforcement for their skills in making predictions and inferencing? I explored a neat interactive that does just that. The site description is "This WPSU interactive The Detective’s Notebook Game is designed to get students to think about what they are reading and to answer questions that require inferencing. In the game the student has access to an amateur detective's notebook in which several clues or events have been observed. From these clues, some inference or prediction can be made. The game is part of Blue Ribbon Readers, a collection of games designed to help elementary school students learn to read." Visit the Detective's Notebook Game to utilize this interactive in your English/Language Arts classroom. This is geared towards K-5 students. This makes a great activity to do on an interactive whiteboard as whole group or for individual practice.
