Help your Year 6 students master one of the most tested reading skills with this complete inference unit. Ten fully scripted lessons take students from understanding what an inference is, all the way to independently reading complex grade-level texts and producing evidence-based RACE responses.

Every lesson follows a consistent arc: a clear learning target, direct instruction with modelled examples, guided and independent practice, and a recap. Three worksheets (six pages) progress students from vocabulary and basic identification through guided fiction and nonfiction inference tasks to fully independent application with self-assessment. The unit closes with a solo exit ticket and a 4-point rubric for teacher assessment.

What is the RACE framework? Restate, Answer, Cite, Explain. It is the backbone of this unit, and it is embedded into every practice task so students practise structured, evidence-based writing from Lesson 4 onwards. By Lesson 10, students write complete RACE responses independently from unseen texts.

This unit is ideal for Year 6 English teachers, IB MYP Language and Literature classes, literacy intervention programs at Years 6 and 7, and relief-lesson use in independent reading blocks. It works as a standalone unit or as part of a reading strategy series.

Includes a full lesson deck, three worksheets, an exit ticket, and a 4-point rubric. All passages are original - not recycled public-domain filler.
