Letters from the Lighthouse - Session 13 - Prediction

In Session 13 of 'Letters from the Lighthouse', the plot thickens as Olive's suspicions about Miss Carter grow. Olive is convinced that there are secrets Miss Carter is not sharing with her, adding an element of mystery to the story. Students are prompted to engage with the narrative by contemplating what these hidden truths could be. This exercise encourages critical thinking and creativity as they delve into the characters' motivations and possible story developments. It's an opportunity for young readers to make predictions based on the text, their understanding of the characters, and the clues provided so far.

This interactive session invites students to step into Olive's shoes and theorize about Miss Carter's secretive behaviour. They are asked to articulate their thoughts on what Miss Carter might be concealing. By filling in their predictions alongside their name, students actively participate in the storytelling process, making educated guesses that could either align with or diverge from the actual plot as it unfolds. Such activities not only enhance reading comprehension but also foster a deeper connection with the literature, as students become co-creators of the story in their classroom discussions.
