ALT Literal vs. Inferential Thinking We make literal observations that help us infer or draw conclusions about what might be true. 1. This might have happened during summer 2. Since the dog ran right for a drink from the sprinkler, he must have been thirsty. 3. The pup drank water when he got out. 4. It was perfect timing because the kids had been outside in the heat for hours.
ALT Literal vs. Inferential I observe (literal), so I can infer (inferential).
ALT Literal and inferential Examples: They are camping (tent, fire, camp chairs) They are in the forest (trees) Fallen, brown leaves (fall/autumn)
