Inference and Theme

About Inference and Theme

Second graders match book titles to pictures, use clues in a short text to figure out what is not said, and find the lesson in short fables. Every passage can be read aloud with a tap, so developing readers can work on their own.

There are 3 levels of 10 questions, from easy to challenging. A hint appears after two misses, then the answer is shown, and kids earn up to 3 stars. Nothing is timed.

Skills Practiced
