About this resource

Description

Good readers do not just follow a story. They notice clues and guess what will happen next. This Uh Oh Eggs Predictions Worksheet gives children a short, funny story to practice that skill. Caleb wants to carry every grocery bag in one trip, even though his sister warns him the bag is too heavy. The cold milk makes the paper bag damp, a rip opens, and the egg carton starts to slide. Readers use those clues to predict what happens next.

This printable 2nd grade predictions worksheet follows the same shape as a reading comprehension test. Page one has a full-color crayon picture and a 163-word story written at the second-grade reading level. The story stops right before the ending, so children have to think about the clues instead of reading the answer. Page two holds four multiple-choice questions and one written response that asks children to name two clues from the story that support their prediction.

What’s Included

  • One short story that stops just before the ending, with a full-color illustration
  • Four multiple-choice questions, including a prediction question
  • One written response using two clues from the story
  • A complete answer key

Why It Helps Kids

Making predictions keeps children active while they read, because they are always asking what will happen next. Every clue in this story points the same way, so children learn that a good prediction is built on details in the text, not on a wild guess. The written response asks for two clues, which is the same evidence habit children need on reading tests in later grades.

Teachers and parents can stretch the lesson in many ways. Read the story aloud and pause before the last paragraph so children can predict out loud. Have children underline each clue in a different color. Ask them to write a new ending where Caleb makes two trips instead. Or read a picture book together and stop every few pages to make and check predictions. The Uh Oh Eggs Predictions Worksheet fits well in a literacy center, as homework, or as a quick check after a lesson on story clues.
