When previewing, what should you do after you make your prediction? I’ll give 100 points

Previewing is a strategy that readers use to recall prior knowledge and set a purpose for reading. It calls for readers to skim a text before reading, looking for various features and information that will help as they return to read it in detail later.

Why Use It

According to research, previewing a text can improve comprehension (Graves, Cooke, & LaBerge, 1983, cited in Paris et al., 1991).

Previewing a text helps readers prepare for what they are about to read and set a purpose for reading.

The genre determines the reader’s methods for previewing:

Readers preview nonfiction to find out what they know about the subject and what they want to find out. It also helps them understand how an author has organized information.

Readers preview biography to determine something about the person in the biography, the time period, and some possible places and events in the life of the person.

Readers preview fiction to determine characters, setting, and plot. They also preview to make predictions about story’s problems and solutions
