FAQ
How does making predictions improve reading comprehension?⌄
Predictions keep students actively engaged with the text — they read with purpose to confirm or revise their thinking, leading to deeper processing and better recall of content.
What information should students use to make a strong prediction?⌄
Strong predictions draw on the title, illustrations, headings, prior knowledge about the topic or genre, and clues from the text already read.
Should students be 'wrong' predictions penalized?⌄
No — the goal is the reasoning process, not accuracy. Revising an incorrect prediction based on new evidence is itself a valuable comprehension skill worth celebrating.
