Inferring Character Feelings Station Rotation for Grade 3
A station-based reading packet where 3rd graders infer characters' hidden emotions from body, action, and voice clues rather than explicit labels. It builds inferencing and feeling-vocabulary skills, supported by a word bank and guided prompts, and works well for small-group rotations of about 15 to 20 minutes per station.

Teacher Guide & Tips
- Use this station during small-group rotation time, with students reading each passage together before choosing a feeling word from the bank.
- Discussion question: What clue in the passage helped you decide how the character felt, and what might have made them feel that way?
- Scaffold for struggling readers: model one passage aloud, thinking through a body clue, an action clue, and a voice clue before students work independently.
- Extension for advanced students: have them write one sentence explaining the feeling using two clues, or create a new short passage with hidden feelings for classmates to infer.
- Estimated time: roughly 15 to 20 minutes per station, including the discussion of clues and the choice of a feeling word.
