About this resource

Description

Consonant blends like fl are one of the first big steps in first grade phonics. When two consonants sit side by side, a child has to hold both sounds and read them together — /f/ and /l/ sliding smoothly into flag, flock, and flowers. This FL Phonics Stories Reading Comprehension Worksheet gives students a short, decodable story packed with fl words, so they practice that blend inside real reading instead of on an isolated word list.

The worksheet opens with an original story, The Flag in the Wind, about two friends who find a red flag in the grass on a breezy day at the park. A full-color illustrated scene sits above the passage to give young readers context before they begin. On the second page, students answer four fill-in-the-bubble comprehension questions drawn straight from the text, then hunt back through the story for two fl words of their own. Use this FL Phonics Stories Reading Comprehension Worksheet during small-group phonics instruction, as a guided reading follow-up, or as independent morning work.

What’s Included

  • An original fl-blend story, The Flag in the Wind, with a full-color illustrated scene
  • Four multiple-choice reading comprehension questions with fill-in-the-bubble answers
  • A Part B word hunt for finding and writing fl words from the passage
  • A complete answer key
  • A print-ready PDF sized for standard 8.5 x 11 paper

There are three clear reasons this 1st grade blends worksheet helps kids. First, it puts the fl blend inside connected text, so students carry the sound-blending skill from drills over into actual reading. Second, every comprehension question is answerable straight from the passage, which builds the habit of going back to the text for evidence rather than guessing. Third, the Part B word hunt asks children to produce fl words themselves, moving them from simply recognizing the blend to recalling and writing it.

Teachers can read the story aloud once, then have students reread it with a partner while tracking the words with a finger. Highlighters work well here — ask children to mark every fl word before they start the questions, then compare marked pages as a group. At home, parents can extend the lesson by hunting for fl words around the house and yard, or by having a child add one more sentence to the end of the story using an fl word of their own. Displaying finished pages on a phonics wall gives children a reason to reread their work.
