The Importance of Making Predictions
Making predictions is more than just guessing what is going to happen next. Predicting helps students become actively involved in reading and helps to keep their interest level high. Some of the other benefits of teaching students to make predictions are:
- Helps students to ask questions while they are reading
- Encourages students to skim or re-read portions of the story to better understand it or to recall facts about the characters or events
- Provides a way for students to monitor their understanding of the material
