1 Today we will use foreshadowing to help us make predictions RC 2.3

2 Partner Share Make a prediction of what will happen next. Jane got to school and realized she left her homework at home… What will Jane do next? You Just made a prediction using context clues.

3 What Is… Foreshadowing? In this presentation, you will learn how to predict using foreshadowing.

4 Definitions Foreshadowing: looking at events that already happened to predict what will happen next.

5 Hint A shadow is a picture of an object or a person By looking at the shadow we can usually name the object or person The prefix “fore” means happening earlier.

7 Little Red Riding Hood Once upon a time, there was a little girl who lived with her mother. Her mother asked her to take her old and lonely grandmother some food one day. "Don't stop along the way. Go straight to your Grandma's house and back. Don't talk to any strangers and watch out for the wolf in the woods! Now get along !" Foreshadowing

8 The first set of underlined words is an example of foreshadowing. Little Red Riding Hood’s mother is warning her about the wolf in the woods, which hints at what may happen next.

9 Little Red Riding Hood While she was walking through the woods, a wolf was walking past her. "I bet I could convince her to take the long way. Then I could get to her grandmother's house first and trick her into thinking that I was her grandma. That way I could have her and her grandma for a large feast,” he thought.
