Exit Slip: Making Predictions

This short assessment worksheet helps students summarize their predictive thinking at the end of a reading session. After reading a short passage that ends on a suspenseful note, students write what they think will happen next, citing text clues that support their reasoning. They also explain why their prediction fits the story’s direction. This “exit slip” format encourages concise, evidence-based responses and helps teachers quickly evaluate comprehension and inference skills.
