Each lesson plan follows the format of a mini lesson and provides an opportunity for students to turn and talk about how they make predictions while reading. Students will also have the opportunity to practice the strategy with a page by page guided “worksheet” and write about their reading with a common core aligned Reader’s notebook prompt. Here's What You'll Get and Why: My goal was to make it easy to teach readers how to think about books through the lens of comprehension strategies.

You’ll get the following set of resources for each book: - Making Predictions Comprehension Strategy Lesson Plan - Page by Page Practice Worksheets - Answer Keys - Text Specific Reader’s Notebook Prompts - Making Predictions Graphic Organizer - Complete Common Core Alignment You’ll also get a set of Making Predictions Task Cards that can be used with early finishers or as an extension activity for all students.
