Narrator 1:
Raúl stopped at the kitchen door.
Raúl:
Dad, I’m not really hungry after all. I want to go outside
and practice my swing.
Dad:
Raúl, I really think you should eat breakfast. You’re going
to need all the energy you can get.
Raúl:
No, I’ll befine.
Dad:
I’m not so sure about that. Remember last week’s game?

Recall
Why does Raúl want to skip breakfast?
Remind students that recall questions ask
them about something they have just read in
the text.

Comparing and Contrasting
How is Dad’s
view of breakfast different from Raúl’s?
Explain to students that comparing is
telling how two or more things, events,
or characters are alike, and contrasting is
telling how two or more things, events, or
characters are different.

Making Inferences
Why might Dad want
Raúl to think about last week’s game?
Remind students that when they make
inferences, they use clues from the text
and what they already know to figure out
something that is not directly stated or
explained.
