About this resource
Description
First graders are learning that a vowel can say its own name, and the long i sound shows up in many of the words they read every day. This I Like Ice Reading Comprehension Worksheet puts that sound inside a real text. The short informational story is all about ice: what it is, how to make it in a tray at home, why it is nice on a hot day, and what happens when it melts. It is packed with long i words such as ice, nice, white, shine, while, time, lime, slice, side and wipe, so children hear and read the sound again and again while they read for meaning.
The first page pairs the story with a bright kitchen picture of an ice tray, a cold glass of lime juice and a folded towel. Five multiple-choice questions follow on their own page, each with three choices and a bubble to fill in, and they are drawn from every paragraph of the story. Read the passage aloud together first, then let students reread it on their own, circle each long i word they find, and answer the questions.
What’s Included
- A one-page informational story about ice, full of long i words, with a full-color picture
- Five multiple-choice comprehension questions with three choices each
- A complete answer key
Why It Helps Kids
First, it practices the long i sound in connected text instead of in a list, which is how children will meet it in books. Second, it builds reading comprehension with questions that send readers back into the story for the answer. Third, it teaches a little real science about freezing and melting that children can test in their own kitchen.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Make a tray of ice together and check on it every hour, then read the story again when it is frozen. Have children list every long i word from the passage and sort the words by spelling. Use this 1st grade long vowels worksheet in a phonics center, and pair the I Like Ice reading comprehension worksheet with the other stories in the series for more vowel practice.
