# Predictions: Example

English: Year 5 & 6 National Curriculum, topic 1.5.9

## Prediction: Example

In a prediction, we need to be able to justify why we think something will happen, using evidence from the text.

### Text

![Text](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2025-04/7e86eb31-db47-4d66-b48e-c9f1aa4e36e4/392fb0d5-d3f9-44a7-97d7-11e7168839b2.png)

- 'The old woman longed for the drought to end. As she looked over the hills, a bank of dark, ominous clouds drew in and a cold breeze disturbed the dry, thirsty trees.'

### Prediction

- From the text, we could predict that a rainstorm will come and end the drought.
 - We could also predict that the old woman will live happily.

### Why?

![Why?](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2025-04/4146e2b5-bd4d-4358-a0a5-9e98a3b6b0c7/43dddc71-dfdd-4825-bde5-22a79c2d970e.png)

- We can predict that the rainstorm will come. 
 - Because we know that dark clouds tend to mean that rain is coming.
- We can predict that the old woman will live happily.
 - Because we know that the old woman wanted the drought to be over.

### What can we not predict?

![What can we not predict?](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2025-04/b770fefa-70ad-4397-96ba-8f381cf9a6f5/2bb6cf17-3915-4639-890e-d01be1dfcfe7.png)

- We could not predict that the old woman will find a precious emerald in the dirt and become rich. 
 - We can't predict this because there is nothing in the text to suggest that this might happen!

## Test yourself on Predictions: Example

- Which of these could we predict from the following passage?
**The long train rolled into the deserted station. Grace peered out of the train window into the blackness of the station building. She could see something moving inside.**
- Which of these could we predict from the following passage?

**I walked into the room to the sound of music from a fairground. I scanned the empty room, but there was no evidence of where the music was coming from. Then something caught my eye on the floor in the corner of the room.**
- Which of these could we predict from the following passage?
__Freya burst through the barrier. The police were gaining on her and she was having to push her car and her driving to their limits. She weaved in and out of the traffic with the blue lights flashing in her mirror. __
- Which of these could we predict from the following passage?
__Before he knew it, it was time for the interview to begin. He sat down, crossed his legs, sat up straight and waited patiently for the infamous interviewer to arrive. The door creaked open.__
- Which of these could we predict from the following passage?
__Ella tied her shoelaces tightly, took a deep breath, and stepped up to the starting line. The crowd went quiet. The whistle was just about to blow.__
