Making predictions in fiction represents a fundamental reading comprehension skill that enables students to engage actively with narrative texts by anticipating plot developments, character actions, and story outcomes based on textual evidence and context clues. Wayground's extensive collection of reading comprehension resources focuses specifically on this critical skill, providing students with carefully curated reading passages paired with text-based questions that challenge them to make logical inferences about what might happen next in stories. These materials develop essential critical thinking abilities as students learn to synthesize information from character descriptions, setting details, dialogue, and plot events to form reasonable hypotheses about future story elements, while simultaneously strengthening their overall reading comprehension and analytical reasoning skills. Wayground supports English teachers with millions of teacher-created reading comprehension resources that can be easily discovered through robust search and filtering capabilities, allowing educators to locate materials perfectly aligned with their curriculum standards and student needs. The platform's comprehensive differentiation tools enable teachers to customize reading passages and questions to match varying reading levels within their classrooms, while flexible digital delivery formats ensure seamless integration into both traditional and technology-enhanced learning environments. These adaptable resources prove invaluable for lesson planning focused on prediction skills, targeted remediation for students struggling with inferential thinking, enrichment activities for advanced readers ready for more complex fictional texts, and ongoing skill reinforcement through repeated practice with diverse narrative genres and prediction scenarios.
