Making Predictions Task Cards Activity (3rd 4th 5th 6th Grade Inferences)

These task cards are a great way for students to have fun while practicing their skills with making inferences. A recording sheet and answer key is included.

This activity has students reading 16 short passages to each other and then asked to make a prediction about what is most likely to happen next. Students are also asked to support their answers with details from the passage.
