Strategy
  • Mark key points in the story at which the students will write predictions.

  • Give prediction log papers to the students.







     

  • Students preview the story and write their predictions at the designated points.

    • After reading each section, students determine if their predictions were correct.

    • Using their prediction logs and with the teacher's guidance, the students:

      • Discuss their predictions

      • Explain why they made the predictions

      • Discuss how they constructed meaning through the story

  • Students discuss how their personal experiences influenced their understanding of the story.

  • Students discuss predictions that were not confirmed and what they missed in reading that led them to the wrong conclusions.

  • Students write their reactions or their responses to the story and the discussion
