Guide in Using Learner’s Module

For the Parents/Guardian

This module is designed to assist you as the learning facilitator at home. It
provides you with activities and lesson information that the learners need to
accomplish in a distance learning modality.
 Week 1
Use clues to answer questions, clarify understanding and justify
predictions before, during and after reading. (titles, pictures, etc.)

What I need to know?
I This lesson will help you to predict based on the clues and text or illustration. Today we are going
to learn how to make predictions because that’s what great readers do. As readers we predict too, we
look at the pictures title and think about what is going to happen in the story.
You are expected to use clues to predict what will happen next, justify the predictions before,
during, and after reading, and practice making predictions with the use of support evidence from the
picture or text.

We can predict in a lot of ways in our lives. Take a look at this picture:

What kind of weather do you think is

coming?
I predict that, it will rain.

Why do you think so?

Because the gray clouds appear when the
rain is coming.

When you’re guessing what will happen next your making PREDICTIONS. You can make
predictions before, during and after reading a text or after looking at the picture/illustration.
PREDICTION - Taking the details found in the text and using those details to support what you think will
happen next. Predicting involves thinking ahead while reading and anticipating information and events in
the text or illustration.
