Making Predictions | Reading

Predicting is a educated guess about what will happen next or in the future. 
We had to make predictions on the questions about the book called Happy New Year. We had to answer the questions by predicting what will happen later in that story.  

One prediction I made was I think that the family uses fireworks and catches fire to the great barrier reef. It was wrong becauase there are fire bans at the great barrier reef.

The second prediction was the party is going to turn into a disaster. My prediction was correct because one of the locals shot a flare gun and the flare caught fire to the trees.

Predicting can help you find clues about the story for information.
