Teachers utilize these resources for initial skill introduction, targeted remediation for students struggling with inference-making, and enrichment activities that challenge advanced learners to make increasingly sophisticated predictions about complex fictional works, ultimately reinforcing reading comprehension and analytical thinking skills across diverse learning contexts.
