Grade 3 Reading & Writing · World 6: Story Forest · Level 52
Predict, Infer, Summarize
Read a story in chapters: predict what comes next, check it, infer, and summarize each chapter.
Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. About 15 minutes.
What children learn in Level 52
- Longer stories are split into chapters. Good readers stop after each chapter to think.
- Predict: use clues to guess what will happen next. Then keep reading to check.
- Did you notice the clues? Aunt Rose hid treasures in the hollow oak, and Ava looks at that tree. Ava will probably search the oak!
- Infer: figure out what the author doesn't say. Summarize: tell the most important events in just a sentence or two.
