horrible
“capable of causing horror”
At times the spelling of the root word must be changed when

Make Predictions: Comprehension




When readers make a prediction, they think
about what has already happened in a
selection and make an educated guess about
what will happen next.
They think about what they know about the
characters, events, and setting of the story.
They also think about similar people, places,
and events in the world.
Active readers make predictions as they read.
Who’s Nervous Now?

“Did you two choose your music for the piano recital?” asked Mom.
“I’ll do it later,” said Nan. She had two whole weeks until the recital.
Ned turned the pages of his music books. After much deliberation, he
made a decision. “I’m going to start practicing right now,” he said.
Nan put off choosing her music. Instead she spent her time thinking
about what other people might play, how she should bow after her
performance, and whether she should greet the audience with a big or
small smile. Meanwhile, Ned worked hard practicing the piece he had
chosen. “You’re just practicing so much because you’re Nervous Ned,”
said Nan. “I never get nervous.”
The day before the recital, Nan chose her music. She began to
practice, but the piece was too hard. She chose another piece, and that
was too hard too. “Mom,” Nan cried, her stomach full of nervous
bubbles, “I have to tell Ms. Prince that I can’t play at the recital. I don’t
have time to learn my music!”
At the recital, Ned felt confident. When he performed, he had fun and
played well. Nan, from her seat in the audience, was surprised. “Wow,”
she said. “I guess practice got rid of Nervous Ned!”

Retell what Nan does before the recital.
She does not practice. Instead, she thinks about how she
will bow, what other people will play and how she should
greet the audience.
How does Nan feel when she realizes she is not ready to
perform in the recital?
She feels nervous and sad.
Think about how you felt in the past when you were not
ready to do something.
You will use these facts from the story and your own prior
knowledge to make predictions.
Predict what Nan will do the next time she has a recital.
Support your prediction with several reasons.

Contractions are two or more words shortened into one.
In a contraction, letters are deleted and replaced by an
apostrophe.
Subject-pronoun contractions combine a subject-pronoun
and a verb.
For example, he and is make he’s.
You and are make you’re.
Negative verb contractions combine a verb and the word
not, as in couldn’t, which is formed from could and not.
Double negatives, such as don’t have none, are incorrect
