12/7

We have been learning to infer in class.  Use the inference equation
BK+TC=I to make an inference during your 20 minutes of reading tonight.
In the comment section, leave the title, author, background knowledge, and text clues that helped you make an inference. 
I've create an example to help you:
Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak
The book told me that Max was sent to bed without anything to eat.  I know that sometimes kids are sent to bed early when they get in trouble.  I can infer that Max's mom must be mad at him.

    I read Fudge-a-mania by Judy Blume. The book did not tell me that uncle feather was a bird but I can infer that he was because there is no person named uncle feather and they keep calling the bird uncle feather.

    I read Just Grace by Cherise Mericle Harper. My background knowledge is that soldiers used morse code during war. My text clue is "Mimi got a book from the library so we could learn Morse code and send a flashlight message to each other at night in the dark." So I can infer that morse code is a way to secretly communicate.
