What does partly right mean on these sheets?

Part of the prediction happened and part did not. A reader predicted Nadia's kite would crash and she would quit. The kite did crash, but Nadia fixed it, so the prediction is partly right, and the child writes the story evidence.

How should my child use the stop points?

Cover the next part of the story and fill in the Stop and Predict box first, so the prediction is a real one. Then read on and check it. Talk about which clue changed or confirmed the prediction.

Do the check and revise predictions worksheets have answer keys?

Yes. All 4 sheets have an answer key, three of them on two pages. Predictions differ from child to child, so the key gives sample answers and what to look for, with fixed answers for the multiple choice questions.

How is a prediction different from a guess?

A prediction rests on a clue from the story plus what the reader already knows. A guess has nothing behind it. Each sheet asks children to copy the clue first and then write the prediction, so every prediction has a reason.

Why do some stories stop partway through?

So children commit to a prediction before they know the ending. On the stop and predict, check and revise sheets, have your child fill in the Stop and Predict box before turning the page or reading on. The next part lets them check.

What if my child's prediction was wrong?

That is fine and expected. Many sheets ask children to circle whether the prediction was right, partly right or wrong, then name the clue that pointed to the ending or changed their mind. Spotting a clue they missed is the skill that matters.

Do the 5th grade prediction worksheets have answer keys?

Yes. All 16 sheets have an answer key. Predictions differ from child to child, so the key gives sample clues and predictions, fixed answers for the multiple choice questions and other answers the story supports.

Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher

These check and revise predictions worksheets for 5th grade teach children to test a prediction against what happens and change it when new clues appear (CCSS RL.5.1). Marcus predicts his birthday pet after each of three story parts, Nadia's kite festival story comes with four predictions a reader made to mark right, partly right or wrong, a robotics club's missing kit story stops after Part 1 for a prediction that Part 2 confirms or changes, and an understudy story stops just before a surprise twist. Children name the clue that confirmed or changed each prediction. Four original sheets, each with an answer key.

Frequently Asked Questions

Good readers change their minds when a new clue appears. When Dad carries a long glass tank into Marcus's room, a fish tank seems likely, until Mom pours in sand instead of water. Revising is not a mistake; it shows the child is reading closely.
