inference
By Chris

Clip to ScrapBook   
To introduce the concept, I bring in kitchen utensils that are different. I ask the students to examine them and guess at how they are used, explianing why they can make that guess. We talk about how they made educated guesses based on things they know (serated blades cut, for example), and based on what they see - thus, inferencing.
