Inferring

Good readers understand there is meaning to be made in the text that is not written directly in the text, but instead, "between the lines" of the text. Good readers draw conclusions and make inferences based on the evidence in the text and their own prior knowledge that they bring to the text. They combine their own thinking with the written words in order to read and understand what is to be assumed rather than directly stated.
