Description
The Asking and Answering Questions About a Text Worksheet helps first grade readers build an essential comprehension skill: asking and answering questions about a text. On this asking and answering questions about a text worksheet, students read a short, friendly story about a family’s new puppy named Daisy and then respond to questions that can only be answered by looking back at the text.
This printable worksheet includes an original on-grade reading passage with a full-color illustration, five multiple-choice comprehension questions, and space for students to ask their own question about the story. To use it, have children read the passage independently or follow along as you read it aloud, fill in the bubble beside the best answer for each question, and then write one question of their own that the story answers. A complete answer key is included.
What’s Included
- 1 original reading passage with a full-color illustration
- 5 multiple-choice comprehension questions
- 1 “ask your own question” writing prompt
- 1 answer key
This first grade reading comprehension worksheet supports young readers in three ways. First, it strengthens their ability to find answers directly in a text. Second, it encourages active reading by having students generate their own questions. Third, the short, high-interest story keeps beginning readers engaged and confident as they practice.
Teachers and parents can use this worksheet during guided reading groups, as a literacy center activity, for morning work, or as a quick comprehension check. Pair it with a favorite read-aloud, or invite students to draw and write about their own new pet to extend the lesson at home or in the classroom.
