This Grade 2 worksheet challenges readers with short three to four sentence passages where clues must be combined. Students read scenes about raincoats, birthday banners, quiet classrooms, and soccer gear, then pick the most likely inference from four choices. Five fill-in items add extra practice with tricky clues. Hints help Grade 2 learners spot the key evidence, and every reason explains how the clues support the best answer.
