We looked at 'making predictions' today. This is a strategy that we have used since Kindergarten. Our teachers often asked us to predict what a story was about from the cover or what we think is going to happen next. We now have a word that explains a comprehension strategy that we've been already using for a long time. Today we made 'predictions' about an article after reading the title and sub-titles. We then had to read the article and see if our 'predictions' were accurate.
Dear Mrs Taylor,
ReplyDeleteLove the blog and reading your work. What brilliant fun you all seem to be having.
I work for the Primary English Teaching Association Australia and we are producing a new book with Libby Gleeson and are looking for teachers who are sharing student work (specifically narrative writing) online in interesting ways.
I am wondering if you would mind me sending your blog through to Libby for her to look at and contact you about participation in the book?
Regards
