About this resource
Description
A picture in a non-fiction book is not decoration. It carries information the sentences never quite say, and a young reader who knows to look at it understands twice as much. This Images in Text Worksheet puts that idea to work with a short informational passage about lighthouses and a full-width illustration of one at night, then asks four questions that send students back and forth between the words and the picture.
The passage runs 152 words in three paragraphs: what a lighthouse looks like, how its beam works, and who used to keep it burning. The questions do three jobs at once. One asks for a detail from the text. One asks what the picture helps the reader see, which is the text-features skill at the heart of this 1st grade context clues worksheet family. One asks for the meaning of the word beam using only the sentence around it, and the last asks for the main idea. A written response closes the sheet, and an answer key is included.
What’s Included
- 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
- Answer key
- An original 152-word informational passage with a full-width illustration
- 4 multiple-choice questions covering detail, text features, vocabulary and main idea
- 1 written response question with ruled writing lines
There are three reasons this resource helps children learn to read images alongside text. First, the illustration shows something the words describe rather than something new, so a student can check one against the other and see that they agree. Second, the vocabulary item on this Images in Text Worksheet can only be answered from context, which is the exact move a reader makes when a book hands them an unfamiliar word. Third, the written response asks for two details, so students practice supporting an answer instead of stating one.
Teachers and parents can carry the skill into any book on the shelf. Open a non-fiction title, cover the words, and ask what the picture alone tells you. Then read the page and list what the words added. Ask students to draw their own picture for a paragraph that has none, and talk about what they chose to show. Naming the difference between a photograph, a diagram and a drawing takes two minutes and sticks for years.
