Learning Objective
I can use picture clues to predict content.
Today we will learn how to use picture clues to predict content. Reading and writing help us share our ideas with others.
Picture clues are hints in illustrations that help you understand a story or text. Before you read, look at the pictures and ask: "What do I see? What might this story be about?" During reading, pictures can help you figure out new words or understand what's happening. Making predictions from pictures means guessing what will happen next based on what you see. Good readers use pictures AND words together!
Let's break this down step by step so it's easy to understand. Follow along with the examples, and don't worry if it takes some practice to get the hang of it!
Remember: Making mistakes is part of learning. If something is tricky, try again, look at the examples, or ask for help.
