Jaden often stayed up too late reading science fiction novels, so he had a difficult time getting up. One fall morning, his father knocked at his bedroom door and warned, “You’d better get up, Jaden. It’s very late. You don’t want to miss the bus today; your class is going on a field trip to Jacob’s Farms to pick apples.” Annoyed, Jaden simply turned his face toward the wall and pulled the covers over his head. When he next woke up, his alarm clock was going off. “I have five more minutes,” he said to himself and reached over to hit the snooze button, but what he really hit was the off button. Which is the best prediction of what will happen next?

Jaden will oversleep and miss the bus.

Jaden will have breakfast with his father.

Jaden will meet his class at Jacob’s Farms.
