Unravel Reading Strategy

Which of the following is true of predictions?

• Predicting helps us think about the text, and that helps us remember what we read.

• The only predictions that help are the ones that end up coming true.

• Any kind of prediction is worth making, as long as you take a guess about the future.

When should we make predictions?

• If we already know a lot about a subject.

• Only before we start reading for the very first time.

• Every time we read, and before, during, and after our reading.
