About this resource

Description

Sight words are the words readers meet again and again, and they have to be known on sight rather than sounded out one letter at a time. The third sight word list adds harder ones like never, better, kind, try, hurt, much, laugh, fall, and if. The If I Get Hurt Third Sight Words Reading Comprehension Worksheet puts all nine of those words inside one short story about a playground fall, so students practice them the way real reading works: in sentences, with meaning attached, instead of on flash cards.

This 2nd grade reading comprehension worksheet is a three-page printable. Page one holds an original 175-word story about Cora, who trips during a game of tag, and Alan, the friend who does not laugh and helps her up. A full-color illustration sets the scene. Page two asks four multiple-choice questions with fill-in-the-bubble answers and one short written response that asks students to explain how Alan showed he was a kind friend. Page three is the answer key. Use it for guided reading groups, an independent literacy center, morning work, or a quick comprehension check after a sight word lesson.

What’s Included

  • 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
  • Answer key
  • 3 pages: a 175-word illustrated story, 4 multiple-choice questions plus 1 written response, and the answer key

The If I Get Hurt Third Sight Words Reading Comprehension Worksheet helps readers in three ways. First, meeting the sight words in a connected story builds the automatic recognition that frees up attention for meaning, which is the whole point of learning them. Second, the four multiple-choice questions are drawn from four different parts of the story, so students have to go back and search the text instead of guessing from the last line they read. Third, the written response asks for evidence, which is the habit every later reading test will expect.

Teachers and parents can build on this page in simple ways. Ask students to reread the story out loud and clap once each time they hear a sight word from the list. Have them circle the nine words on the page, then write two of their own sentences using the two that felt hardest. Talk about the ending together: what did Cora do the next day, and why does that matter? For a kindness connection, let students write a short note thanking someone who once helped them, then read the notes aloud as a class.
