Teacher Think Aloud

  •  I know that when I read a story, I can stay more connected to the text by making, confirming, and revising predictions. 

  • I can look for clues and make predictions about what will happen to Prince Alfonso on his journey.

  • On page 157, Alfonso says he “would give anything and everything” for his father’s health.

  • On page 159, he asks forgiveness for causing his parents sorrow. Based on this evidence, I predict that Alfonso faces great danger. As I continue reading, I will look for story details to either confirm my prediction or revise it.
