About this resource
Description
This Mannerless Marty Reading Comprehension Worksheet gives third graders a short, gentle story about a friendly boy who keeps forgetting his manners. Marty talks with his mouth full, calls out in class and cuts in line, until one day he eats lunch alone. With help from his grandma, he learns that manners are small ways to show kindness, and his lunch table fills with friends again.
How to Use This Worksheet
Students read the story on page one, then turn to the questions page. Part A has four multiple choice questions that ask about a stated idea, a cause, a key detail and what happens next. Part B asks students to explain how Marty changed from the start of the story to the end, using two details from the text. The final page is an answer key, so checking work is quick for teachers and parents.
What’s Included
- A one-page, 3rd grade story about Marty and his manners, with a full-color illustration
- Four multiple choice comprehension questions
- One written response question about how a character changes
- A complete answer key
Why It Helps Kids
First, the story is written at a third grade reading level, so students can read it on their own and focus on understanding. Second, the questions move past simple recall and ask about causes and character change, which builds deeper thinking. Third, the topic gives children a clear, positive picture of everyday kindness they can practice at the table, in class and in the lunchroom.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Use this 3rd grade reading comprehension worksheet during a unit on character, as part of a social skills lesson, or as a calm morning work page. After reading, have students add one more rule to Marty’s list and act it out with a partner. At home, read the Mannerless Marty Reading Comprehension Worksheet together at dinner and talk about which manners your family already uses.
