My Prediction


WALT: Write a prediction for what a story might be about based on the keywords

One day Lili was sick. Ana was delivering circulars on a buggy  when she stopped for a second and pushed the brake.   Later she took off down the street.   Ana’s manager was feeling very mad because something very bad just happened. She worried because she might lose her job her manager just said “hey your fired for being late almost everyday!!!”
“NOOOO I JUST LOST MY JOB!!!”
WALT:Evaluate our prediction after reading the story (Junk Mail by Prue Hilson, Pt 3, No.3 1995)

I give my prediction a 4/10. I predicted correctly that Lili was sick and that Ana was delivering circulars on a buggy. However I did not predict correctly that Ana got yelled at by lots of people and that she ruined the pamphlets.
