Predicting text

Predicting the kind of text

Text title: To close to the edge

Predictions before reading:

• What kind of text do I think it is? (narrative, information report, recount etc.)
• I think this is a narrative because of the title.
• What do I think the text is about?
• We think the text is about people walking on the edge of a mountain because it shows in the photo  
• One sentence I might see in the text is:
• Mountain because there's a picture of a mountain in the book.

Revising my predictions:

• My prediction was confirmed because of the story sequence
• My prediction was partly correct, but I was corrected and changed my answer
• I changed my prediction about the story being a recount because of the text
