About this resource

Description

Autumn gives young readers a season they can see, hear and smell, which makes it a perfect setting for comprehension practice. The Egor and Ted’s Exciting Autumn Reading Comprehension Worksheet pairs an original short story with questions that ask students to find details, follow a sequence and explain a character’s reason. Egor the friendly dragon and Ted the clever frog get the forest ready for winter, and every answer can be found or inferred from the text.

This printable, three-page PDF is written for 3rd Grade. Page one holds the story and a full-color autumn illustration. Page two holds four multiple-choice questions, one fill-in-the-blank item and one short written response. Page three is the complete answer key, so grading takes a minute. Read the story aloud together first, or hand it out as independent work, morning work, a literacy station, homework or a substitute-teacher folder page.

What’s Included

  • One original 3rd Grade autumn story about Egor and Ted (174 words)
  • An illustrated picture-book scene on the story page
  • Four multiple-choice questions with fill-in-the-bubble answers
  • One fill-in-the-blank item and one short written response
  • A complete answer key with a sample response (3-page PDF)

Three Reasons This Helps Kids

First, the questions cover different kinds of thinking. Some ask for a stated detail, one asks why a character did something, and the last asks the reader to connect the story to their own life. Second, the story is written on grade level on purpose. Sentence length and vocabulary were measured, not guessed, so a third grader can read it without help and still meet a few new words in context. Third, the season does real work here. Because the story shows a frog preparing to rest for the winter and leaves changing color, the Egor and Ted’s Exciting Autumn Reading Comprehension Worksheet also reinforces the science standard on seasonal change.

Ideas for Teachers and Parents

Ask students to underline the sentence that proves their answer to question three before they fill in a bubble. Have partners retell the story in order using the words first, next and last. Take the last question outside and let children list what they notice about autumn in your own neighborhood. This 3rd grade reading comprehension worksheet also pairs well with a leaf-collecting walk or a class chart of what animals do to get ready for winter.
