Benchmark 1.B.2a: Establish a purpose for reading; survey materials; ask questions;
make predictions; connect, clarify, and extend ideas.
: When asked, the
students will be able to:
1.
Identify
10 pre-selected words as various parts of the story, including setting, character,
problem, solution, and ending.
2.
Create
their own story using identified words to make a prediction about an upcoming
story.
:
1.
This
activity should take place before reading the story or introduction of any vocabulary
words.
2.
Students will be given a worksheet entitled “Can You Predict the
Story?” The worksheet is divided into five sections: Setting, Characters, Problem,
Solution, and Ending. Ten pre-selected words will be given to the students.ÂÂÂ
They must then use thinking skills to decide where the words may fit into the
story. The words may be placed in any of the five columns, but may not be repeated
in more than one column.ÂÂÂ
3.
Once students have entered each of the words into a column, they
are to create their own short story. This story will serve as a prediction
to the upcoming story. Students should be allowed adequate time to use creativity
in their creations.
4.
After students have completed their writing of the short story,
all or some may be read to the class. Explain to the students that they have
just made a prediction about the story they are about to read. They should
try to keep some of these predictions in mind while reading to see which, if
any were correct.ÂÂÂ
