Foreshadowing Identifier

Students read eight narrative lines and place a check mark next to those that contain foreshadowing. This activity teaches learners to identify subtle hints or clues about events that will happen later in a story. It strengthens interpretive reading skills and helps students understand how authors build suspense and guide reader expectations. By distinguishing between ordinary details and meaningful hints, students develop stronger literary analysis abilities. This worksheet prepares learners for deeper study of plot construction and literary techniques.
