About this worksheet
Three very short stories, each stopping at a turning point, make up this Year 2 English starter on prediction. A dark purple sky rumbles, a chocolate cake sits alone on the kitchen counter, and snow ruins a planned trip to the beach. Pupils tick the most sensible prediction, write one using 'because', and pick out the clues that led them there. There are five questions over three pages, with example answers in the key. Matches the England National Curriculum reading comprehension objectives.
