back cover. ASK: what kind of book is this and what might it be about
Students will preview the rest of the book by looking at the pictures.
Predict: what do you think this book is about. Give evidence from the
text.
EXAMPLE: to make my prediction, I think about the title of the story,
Sparkys Mystery Fortune. I wonder what the mystery is. When I look at
the front cover illustration, I see a girl holding some small pieces of
paper. I wonder weather she is Sparky. On the title page I see bits of
broken fortune cookie. The pieces of paper must be from the cookie. I
wonder if Sparky gets a mystery fortune.
