Welcome!

Today we are going to use art to practice


making predictions.
Are you ready?

A Prediction Lesson
When readers use
information from the text
and what they already know
to figure out what may
happen next, it is called
predicting.
Raise your hand if
you like to look at art!
Let’s practice making
predictions by looking at some
art. We are going to “read”
pictures and think about
what we know.
To make a good
prediction, I’m going to
“read” this picture
and think about what
I already know about
what’s happening
in it.

Turn and Talk

Now, let’s make a


prediction together.
Look closely at this picture.
What is going on?
What will happen next?
How do you know?

The Sad Juggler by Lauren Gallegos


What is happening
in this picture? What
do you predict will
happen next? How
do you know?

Now that we’ve practiced
predicting with art,
let’s try it with stories.
Sarah was walking through the
jungle, singing happily, when a big lion
pounced from behind a bush. “What
are you doing in my jungle?” he
roared.
“P-please, Mr. Lion,” whispered
Sarah. “I was only going for a walk.” (p.
2)

It’s my turn to predict!


My first day at school I sat quietly at my desk while
the teacher talked about CAT. She wrote CAT on the
chalkboard. She read a story about CAT. I did not know
what her words mean, but I knew what the pictures
said. She sang a song about CAT. It was a pretty song,
and I tried to sing the words, too. (p.8)
Later she gave me a paper with my name on it.
“Name. Yoon, And she pointed to the empty lines
underneath.”
I did not want to write YOON. I wrote CAT instead. I
wrote CAT on every line. (p. 2)
Now, let’s try it together.
What do you think will happen next?
How do you know?
Something magical began to
happen among the villagers. As each
person opened their heart to give,
the next person gave even more.
And as this happened, the soup grew
richer and smelled more delicious.
(p. 22)

Now, it’s your turn.


Work with a friend to make a
prediction.
What would happen if an alligator had a
fight with a python? Wow—these are two
deadly reptiles. Who is the toughest? Who
do you think would win? (p. 3)

What will happen next in this


nonfiction text?
Take out a book

make about it?
Talk to a friend.
What predictions did you make?
What information from the book
gave you clues?
