About this resource
Description
Reading comprehension means understanding how characters feel, noticing the details that explain why they act the way they do, and following how a problem gets solved. This farm visit reading comprehension worksheet helps third graders practice those skills with a warm, gentle story. Students read closely, think about what the characters are feeling, and use evidence from the text to answer each question.
About This Worksheet
In Bacon and Wool: Grandkids, spring has come to the farm and the grandkids have arrived for a visit. Bacon the pig and Wool the sheep are thrilled, but the two children sit quietly on the porch steps and stare at their shoes. Wool guesses that they miss their home, finds an old red ball, and the friends roll it over to the porch. After reading, students answer four multiple choice questions, write a word from the story, and give a short written answer about how the visit ends. Read the story once for enjoyment, then reread it to find the sentence that proves each answer.
What’s Included
- A one-page illustrated Bacon and Wool story written at a 3rd grade reading level
- Four multiple choice questions on character feelings, key details, sequence and main idea
- A vocabulary question and a short written response question
- A complete answer key
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
First, the story asks readers to notice how the characters feel and why, which is the heart of understanding fiction. Second, the questions follow the events in order, so students practice tracking what happened first, next and last. Third, every answer can be found in the story, so this 3rd grade reading comprehension worksheet builds the habit of going back to the text for evidence.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before reading, ask students how it feels to visit a new place for the first time. Afterward, have them underline the sentence where the grandkids start to smile. Use the farm visit reading comprehension worksheet in a reading center, a small group, as homework, or as a quick comprehension check, and pair it with the other Bacon and Wool stories for a farm reading unit.
