Story Starter Forecast

Students read three short story beginnings and use details to predict what might happen next. Each passage introduces a situation involving characters, settings, or problems that hint at upcoming events. Learners answer questions about likely outcomes and justify their reasoning. This worksheet strengthens inferential thinking, comprehension of narrative structure, and the ability to use context to anticipate story developments.
