Instructional Ideas
- Model how to complete the organizer first, leading your class through making a prediction for a story you are reading together
- Send this home with learners to use when reading independently; you can collect the organizers as a sort of reading log
Classroom Considerations
- The worksheet has three spaces exactly for clues, and sometimes there might not be exactly three clues that lead up to a prediction
Pros
- Provides two examples to show how a first grader and a fourth grader completed the graphic organizer
- Could be used with just about any text
- Includes a description of how to use the organizer
Cons
- None
