 Boys and girls, today we are going to work on learning a new strategy to help us with our comprehension when we're reading. And we actually talked about this just a little bit yesterday. The one we're going to work on today is called Make and Adjust Predictions. And Jackson actually wrote this one for us. And when we are reading a book, one of the things that can help you with your comprehension and help you enjoy the book is if you are making predictions as you go before you read it. After you read it, is it a prediction? No. That's because you already know the answer. And what is a prediction? Who can tell me what a prediction is? Hayden, what's a prediction? A prediction is like if someone doesn't know something, you can predict what's going to happen. Yeah, it's kind of a guess, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah. Well, we are going to read a book. And this book is called An Extraordinary Egg. And in this book, we're going to make some predictions about what we think is going to happen. So here we go. If you can't see, you need to move where you can see, OK? An extraordinary egg. Now, when we look at the cover, what's on the cover? We got an alligator. What's this? An egg. And a frog. And we already know from the title, Extraordinary. That's a really great tune into an interesting word, isn't it? Yeah. That's an interesting word. So we're going to find out about extraordinary. On Pebble Island, there live three frogs, Marilyn, August, and one who was always somewhere else. So already, we can kind of make a prediction. Where do you think that third frog is? Leigh? In the bush. You think that third frog's in the bush. What about you? I think he's hopping around anywhere. Just hopping around anywhere. What about you? I think he's where the egg is, where the frog and I are. You think he's with the egg and the crocodile. OK, so let's save your thoughts. Let's see if we can check our predictions by reading the rest of the page. Now, were we able to figure out what was happening by reading on? Did it help you enjoy the story more by making guesses about what could happen? Those were your predictions.
