About this resource
Description
Young readers learn about a topic from the words on the page and from the pictures beside them. This RI.1.7 Common Core worksheet helps 1st grade students practice using both the text and the illustration to find key ideas about butterflies. Students read a short, simple text and then study a colorful picture of a monarch butterfly on a pink flower.
After reading, students look at six sentences about butterflies. For each one, they decide where they learned it and fill in T for the text or P for the picture. Some facts, like how a butterfly starts out as a tiny egg, come only from the words. Other details, like the orange and black wings, come only from the picture. This RI.1.7 Common Core worksheet builds the habit of checking both sources when reading nonfiction.
What’s Included
- A short nonfiction text about butterflies written for 1st grade readers
- A colored-pencil illustration of a monarch butterfly on a flower
- Six fill-in-the-bubble items that sort facts by text or picture
- A complete answer key
3 Reasons This Worksheet Helps Kids
- Builds a key reading skill: students learn that pictures in a book carry information too.
- Careful thinking: each sentence makes students go back and check the text or the picture.
- Science connection: kids learn real facts about the butterfly life cycle while they read.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Read the text aloud together first, then point to the picture and ask what else it shows. Afterward, have students add one more sentence they learned from the picture. Pair this 1st grade text features worksheet with a nonfiction butterfly book and ask children to find one fact in the words and one in the photos.
