About this resource
Description
Early readers build comprehension when they read short texts about things they already love, like pets. This my dog is always sleeping reading comprehension worksheet gives 1st grade students a friendly nonfiction passage about why dogs sleep so much, followed by questions that send them back to the text to find each answer.
About This Worksheet
Students read a 99-word informational passage that explains how long dogs sleep, when they take naps, where they like to rest, and what it may mean when a sleeping dog twitches its paws. A cozy watercolor picture of an empty dog bed in a quiet corner helps set the scene. On the next page, students answer five multiple-choice questions by filling in the bubble next to the best answer.
What’s Included
- Page 1: an original 1st grade nonfiction passage with a full-color picture
- Page 2: five multiple-choice comprehension questions with three choices each
- Page 3: a complete answer key
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
First, it builds reading stamina with a passage written at a true 1st grade level. Second, every question can be answered by finding a sentence in the text, which teaches students to look back and check. Third, the topic connects reading to science, so children learn real facts about how animals rest.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Read the passage aloud first, then let students read it on their own. Ask children to underline the sentence that answers each question before they fill in a bubble. Use this my dog is always sleeping reading comprehension worksheet in a pet or animal unit, a reading center, or as homework, and invite students to tell or draw where their own pet likes to sleep.
