Think Out Loud

Cars of the Future

"Today cars need drivers to stop or go. However, in the future, there will be cars that drive by themselves! They will come in big and small sizes the way cars do now. Unlike cars today, they will have special computers to help them steer".

The story read above tells us one-way cars in the future could be the same as cars today. I will use my own words to summarize that information.

To summarize the story I might say,
"In the future, some cars will be big, and some cars will be small."

This reading also shared a few ways cars in the future could be different from cars today.


Complete the sorting activity below to share how cars in the future will be similar and different.
