Predict What Will Happen Next

Good readers do not just react to what happens — they predict what is coming next! A prediction is a smart guess about what will happen, based on clues from the story and things you already know about the world.

What this lesson teaches

1Use story clues and prior knowledge to make a reasonable prediction about what will happen next
2Name which clue (character, plot, or setting) supports the prediction
3Check the prediction against what the text actually says — confirmed, changed, or disproved
