Lizzie Dizzy's Contest
Lizzie loves reading books. She
dreams of becoming a famous
storyteller. But there is a problem:
whenever she starts telling the story
in front of other people, she gets
dizzy. She feels nervous and never
finishes telling the story. One day,
she saw a poster on the bulletin
board about a storytelling contest.
She decided to join the contest. With
the help of her family and friends,
Lizzie practiced every day.
Alright! You all did very well!
C. Presentation
By listening to our story for today,
what do you think is our topic all prediction!
about?
Yes! That's correct!
It's about prediction or "guessing
what happens next."
D. Discussion
Now we will learn about what
Making Predictions is.
What is Making a Prediction?
(the learners will listen)
Making a prediction means guessing
what will happen next in a story. We
use clues from pictures, words, and
what we already know to make a
smart guess.
How Do We Make Predictions?
1. Look at the pictures – What do
you see?
2. Listen to the story – What is
happening now?
3. Think about what you know –
Have you seen this happen before?
Why is Making Predictions
Important?
It helps us understand the story
better.
It makes reading fun and exciting!
It helps us pay attention to details.
Example: It might rain, teacher.
If you see a dark cloud in a picture,
what do you think will happen next?
It might rain! That is a prediction!
E. Exercises
Now let us practice. Let us try to
predict what will happen next.
“ Luis was running around the
classroom with his shoes untied. One
of the nicer boys in the class, Jay,
said, Luis your shoe is untied. Luis
replied, Don’t talk to me. He did not
like Jay. Luis continued running and
playing. As he was running around
the bookshelf, he stepped on one of
his shoelaces and…..”
Based on the information given,
what is likely to occur next?
Possible answer: Luis is probably
going to trip over his shoelace and
fall.
This is the most possible answer
because based on what we know
people usually trip over and fall over
untied shoelaces.
Uncharacteristic answer: Luis will
reveal to the class that he has the
ability to levitate.
This answer is not possible because
people don’t have the ability to
levitate.
F. Generalization
What is prediction?
Prediction is guessing what will
happen next in a story. We use clues
from pictures, words, and what we
already know to make a smart
guess.
G. Application
Let us read another story and predict
what will happen next.
Granny Fox Gives Reddy a Scare
By Thornton W. Burgess
Reddy Fox lived with granny fox in the
green meadows. Granny fox was the
wisest, slyest fox in all the countryside,
and she thought it was time that Reddy
started to learn some things that every
fox should know. So, she taught him how
to steal Farmer John’s chickens without
waking Bowser Hound, and she taught
him all kinds of ways to fool a dog. Today
Granny Fox was taking Reddy through
the green forest.Reddy had never been
that far from home, and he wondered
where they were going. They came to a
railroad track, and trotted along on it for
a while until they came to a long bridge.
At the edge of the bridge, Reddy looked
down at the river far below. It made him
feel dizzy. When he looked up, Granny
fox was running lightly across the bridge.
Use what has happened in the story so
far to guess what will happen next. Circle
the letter of the prediction you choose.
A. Reddy takes a deep breath, and runs
after Granny Fox.
B. Reddy is too afraid to go across the
bridge.
C. Reddy falls through the bridge, and
into the river.
“Come across,” Granny Fox called to
Reddy. But Reddy was afraid. He was
afraid to put one food on that long
bridge. He was afraid he would fall
through it and into the water below.
Granny Fox ran back to him. She sat
down beside him. “Shame on you,” she
said. “What are you afraid of? Just don’t
lookdown. Come on. Just follow me.” But
Reddy couldn’t do it. He just sat there
beside Granny and let out a little
whimper. Suddenly, Granny Fox sprang
to her feet, as if in great fright. “Bowser
the Hound, Reddy!Come, Reddy, come!”
And she started across the bridge as fast
as she could go.
Use what has happened in the story so
far to guess what will happen next. Circle
the letter of the prediction you choose.
A. Reddy is still too afraid, so Granny
comes back and carries him across.
B. Reddy runs away from the bridge, and
hides in the forest.
C. Reddy doesn’t stop to think, he just
runs across the bridge.
Reddy didn’t stop to look. He didn’t stop
to think. His one idea was to get away
from Bowser the Hound.“Wait, Granny!
Wait!” he cried, and started after her as
fast as he could run. Before he knew it,
he was on the other side. He looked
around to see where Bowser the Hound
might be, but he was nowhere to be
seen. Could he have fallen off the bridge?
