The Prediction

Before reading any text we should first try to make predictions about what we are going to read.

This is because it helps us predict what might happen, what kind of words the author might use, and it makes us think about things we already know! This all really helps us to understand a text better.

The Characters

Every good story has to have interesting characters.

Choose two characters from your story. Come up with 5 adjectives for each character to describe how they act (personality), and what they look like (appearance).

Be specific with your word choices.

The Challenge

Every interesting story will have a challenge a character has to overcome.

It could be a mental challenge, or a physical one. Really obvious to see, or tricky to understand, but this challenge is what makes stories so interesting.

Describe the challenge, and tell us how the character/s overcame it!

The Interesting/New Vocabulary

Every text you read will have interesting uses of words. Find me 3 examples where the author has used an interesting or new word in the text.

Let’s build up the power of our vocabulary!!

The Questions

Every text should make us curious about something new about the world. We can follow that curiosity by asking questions. Come up with 3 open-ended questions that you could ask the teacher, or your classmates, or to Google to help you learn more about the world.
