Forest Guess

In this worksheet, students read a story about Lily and her dog, Max, who get slightly lost in the woods. At the halfway point, they are instructed to stop reading and make a prediction about what will happen next. After finishing the story, they compare their prediction with the actual ending. This exercise builds prediction and comprehension skills by encouraging students to use context clues, prior knowledge, and reasoning. It also helps them reflect on how writers create suspense and resolve events.
