By Pedro Pablo Sacristan
Once upon a time there was a very evil and
unpleasant crook who only ever thought about how to get
money. Seeing anyone happy bothered the crook
enormously. What he hated most was when people were
polite and courteous to each other, saying things like
please and thank you, and don't mention it. It annoyed
him even more if they were smiling when they said these
things.
The crook thought all those kinds of words were a
useless waste, and weren't good for anything. So what
he did was spend a lot of time inventing a machine
which could steal words. With this machine, he
planned to steal 'please', 'thank you', 'don't mention
it', and similar words people used to be polite. He
was convinced that no one would notice if those words
were to suddenly disappear. When he had stolen these
words, he intended to take them apart and sell the
letters to book publishers.

2. What is a prediction?
An educated guess about what will
happen later in a text.
• Based on things that have already
happened.
• Informed by things that you know.
• Not outlandish or uncharacteristic.
3. How do you make a
prediction?
You are required to make an inference.
• Think about the text first.
• What has already happened?
• Has the author left any clues?
• Then consider what you know.
• What is likely to occur next?
4. Example
Ronald was running around the classroom with
his shoes untied. One of the nicer boys in the
class, Ezekiel, said, “Ronald, your shoe is
untied.” Ronald replied, “Don’t talk to me.” He
did not like Ezekiel. Ronald then continued
running and playing. As he was running
around the bookshelf, he stepped on one of his
shoelaces and…
Based on information in the text and
what you, what is likely to occur next?
5. Suggested Answer
Ronald is probably going to trip over his
shoelace and fall.
I believe this because…
•He was warned by another character to tie
his shoe (based on the text).
•People commonly trip over untied
shoelaces (informed by what I know).
6. Inappropriate Answers
• Ronald will reveal to the class that he has
the ability to levitate.
• Ronald will run through the wall.
• Ronald will run for President of the United
States and win.
These answers are unrelated to what has
already happened or they are completely
outlandish.
7. Review
A prediction is when readers attempt to
figure out what will happen next.
• Good predictions are based on the what
has already happened in the text.
• Predictions should be informed based on
what you know.
• Predictions should not be outlandish or
unrelated to what has already happened.
8. Practice
1. Read the passage.
2. Predict what event will occur next.
3. Explain your answer.
9. 1
A fishing boat is returning from arctic
waters with a large haul of crab when they
get caught in a big storm. The boat is
tossed about in the powerful waves and
crashes into a large iceberg. The iceberg
punctures the boat and it begins sinking.
The men scramble to inflate the life rafts…
What event is likely to happen next?
Explain your answer.
10. Suggested Answer
The crew will board the life rafts and attempt
to weather the storm.
Explanation
The boat is damaged. It cannot continue.
The men are inflating life rafts. They will
probably get in the life rafts next.

Tommy was walking down the street
when his neighbor’s dog started barking at
him through a fence. It was a big dog and
Tommy never liked him. He walked over to
the dog and started calling the dog names
and yelling at it. The dog barked at Tommy.
Tommy picked up a stick and began poking
the dog through the fence. The dog yelped
and Tommy thought that this was really
funny. Then the dog jumped against the
gate and it flopped open…
12. Suggested Answer
Tommy is probably going to get attacked by
the dog.
Explanation
Tommy teases the dog and the dog is very
aggressive. Tommy hurts the dog, which
probably made it even more angry. Now the
dog has escaped. It will probably attack
Tommy.
13. 3
Betty’s tooth had been sore all day. It
was one of her last baby teeth and it was
very loose. When she sat down to eat her
lunch, her tooth was so sore that she
didn’t want to eat. But she was so hungry.
She grabbed the big red apple from her
lunch tray and sunk her teeth into it. Then
she tasted blood. She loosened her bite
on the apple and realized that…
14. Suggested Answer
Betty’s baby tooth has fallen out or is stuck
in the apple.
Explanation
Betty’s tooth is loose. Baby teeth fall out.
She took a big bite of an apple. Loose teeth
often get stuck in apples. She tasted blood,
which means her tooth has probably fallen
out.
15. 4
Katrina had been starving ever since she
was thrown out of the castle. She had not eaten
in days. As she walked by the market, the smells
of roasting lamb and chicken caused her mouth
to fill with saliva. She wondered how much
longer she could last without food. A bread
wagon rolled past. It swerved suddenly to avoid
a child who had ran across the road. As it
swerved a small loaf of bread fell from the truck
and landed on the dusty ground. The end of the
loaf was in a puddle. Katrina looked around and
noticed that nobody was watching, then she…
16. Suggested Answer
Katrina is either going to eat the loaf of
bread or hide it in her clothes and eat it later.
Explanation
Katrina is so hungry that she is desperate.
She looks around before she makes her
move, which shows that she is thinking
about doing something that she does not
want others to know.

It was a hot summer day and Kyle had just
bought a popsicle from the ice-cream man. As
he was about to open the popsicle his mom
called him in the house to talk about his
progress report. Kyle put the popsicle down on
the stoop and went to talk with his mother.
Twenty minutes later he came back outside to
get his popsicle. Some clouds had moved and
now the sealed popsicle was sitting directly in
the sun. Kyle picked up the package and…
18. Suggested Answer
The popsicle was completely melted.
Perhaps it leaks out of the package.
Explanation
Kyle has left the popsicle in the sun for
much too long. Frozen things melt in the
sunlight and hot weather; therefore, Kyle’s
popsicle has probably melted.
