Drawing Conclusions
English Language Arts, Grade 4
❮
1
/

❯
Drawing
conclusions
helps
you
to
be
an
active
reader
and
better
understand
what
you
read.
A
conclusion
is
a
reasonable
decision
you
make
based
on
the
facts
and
details
presented
in
a
text.
When
you
read
this
text,
picture
what
is
happening.
Think
about
how
the
character
feels
and
look
for
a
clue
as
to
why
he’s
doing
what
he’s
doing.
Charles
wiped
the
sweat
from
his
brow
and
scowled.
Then
he
bent
down
and
pulled
some
more
weeds.
At
least
it
was
easy
enough
to
tell
which
were
weeds
and
which
were
flowers.
But
the
more
time
he
spent,
the
larger
the
garden
seemed
to
grow.
Who
had
come
up
with
the
bright
idea
of
Mother’s
Day
anyways?
When
you
read
this
text,
your
first
thought
may
be
that
the
girl
has
a
cold.
But
consider
the
clues:
Trisha’s
eyes
were
itchy,
and
her
throat
was
scratchy.
She
reached
for
another
tissue
from
the
box
and
blew
her
nose.
“I
hate
trees,”
she
grumbled.
There
are
three
steps
to
drawing
a
conclusion:
1.
Consider
what
the
text
actually
says.
The
author
gives
you
clues.
2.
Think
about
what
would
make
sense
in
the
situation.
3.
Use
your
background
knowledge
(experiences)
to
make
a
logical
choice
about
what
will
happen.
Clues

Do
not
read
this
text
the
whole
way
through.
Read
a
portion
and
then
draw
conclusions
to
answer
the
questions.
Then
read
the
next
paragraph.
Polar
Bear
Central
It
was
not
a
wise
place
to
build
a
town.
Each
fall,
polar
bears
spend
about
three
months
living
there.
Churchill,
on
the
west
coast
of
the
Hudson
Bay
in
Canada,
is
a
rest
stop
on
the
bears'
annual
journey
to
the
pack
ice.
About
1,000
polar
bears
go
there
to
wait
for
the
Bay
to
freeze
over.
About
1,000
people
live
in
the
town.
The
bears
and
the
residents
must
coexist.
1.
Why
is
Churchill
in
a
bad
location?
____________________________________________________________

2.
Which
months
are
the
polar
bears
in
town?
____________________________________________________________
Nowhere
else
on
Earth
do
so
many
bears
gather
in
such
a
small
area.
Hundreds
of
tourists
flock
to
Churchill.
Now
the
Bay
is
freezing
over
later
than
it
used
to.
Polar
bears
spend
more
time
with
more
tourists.
It’s
a
tragedy
waiting
to
happen.
3.
Why
do
tourists
flock
to
Churchill
every
fall?

4.
What
is
the
tragedy
that
the
author
thinks
may
happen?
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
These
bears
haven’t
eaten
in
months--not
since
the
pack
ice
melted
and
left
them
land-
locked.
Yet
some
tourists
act
like
the
bears
are
tame!
Some
try
to
take
photos
too
close
to
a
bear.
Others
walk
alone
on
the
beach
and
almost
invite
an
attack.
The
last
fatal
bear
attack
in
Churchill
occurred
long
ago.
But
in
2013,
two
people
barely
survived
an
attack.
5.
Why
do
the
tourists
act
differently
around
the
polar
bears
than
the
Churchill
residents
do?
