Objective:  I can make inferences by reading aloud to identify quotes and writing to complete each step in the 4-Column Inference Journal while consulting with my elbow partner.  Also, I can cite evidence that identifies character traits and events to determine main points of a summary by reading to answer questions and writing paraphrases and quoted material for completion.
