About this resource
Description
A round pink pig with a curly tail is a funny, friendly character for new readers. The my pet pig reading comprehension worksheet gives kindergartners a short, cheerful story about a pet pig and five simple questions, so children practise reading carefully and then showing what they understood. Every answer comes straight from the words in the story, which builds the habit of looking back at the text to check.
About This Worksheet
The my pet pig reading comprehension worksheet is three pages. Page one has a bright paper-collage picture of a pink pig in its little farm pen, with a bucket of apples and corn and a mud puddle nearby, and a 59-word story told by the pig’s owner: what the pig looks like, what she likes to do, where she lives, what she eats and the sound she makes. Page two has name and date lines and five multiple-choice questions with three answer choices each. Page three is the answer key. The sentences are short and built from familiar words, making this a comfortable kindergarten reading comprehension worksheet for guided reading, a literacy centre, or independent practice.
What’s Included
- A short first-person story about a pet pig, printed in large, easy-to-read type
- A full-color picture of the pig, its pen, its food and its mud puddle
- Five multiple-choice questions with three fill-in-the-bubble choices each
- Name and date lines on the questions page
- A complete answer key
Three Reasons This Helps Kids
- It builds reading stamina in small steps. A story of about sixty words is long enough to feel like real reading and short enough to finish with success.
- It teaches readers to find details. Each question matches one sentence in the story, so children learn to go back and look for the answer.
- The picture supports the words. Children can find the pink pig, the curly tail, the little pen and the apples and corn in the picture.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Read the story aloud once while children follow along with a finger, then let them read it again on their own before they answer the questions. Ask children to point to the sentence that proves each answer. Afterward, make the animal sounds from question five together and talk about which farm animal makes each one. Pair this sheet with the other My Pet stories for a week of animal-themed reading practice. My Pet Pig is also one of nine stories in the My Pets Reading Comprehension Test Collection, a kindergarten reading comprehension pack that puts all nine pet stories together with one combined answer key, so you can plan a whole unit on pets from a single download.
