🔍 Summit: Reading Between the Lines
The Inference module opens the B1-to-B2 reading bridge. Learners master the clue equation, hunt action, word-choice and silence clues through the story of Sam’s listening party, and grade their certainty with must, might and can’t. They finish by writing a scene that hides a feeling between the lines.
