About this resource
Description
Reading comprehension means understanding what you read, and the best way for young readers to build it is with short stories about everyday life. The Sister Is Always Talking on the Phone reading comprehension worksheet gives first graders a warm family story about a child whose big sister is always busy on the phone, followed by questions that check whether students noticed the important details.
About This Worksheet
This first grade reading comprehension worksheet starts with an original story of about 110 words. The narrator loves her big sister, but the sister is always talking, texting, and sending pictures to her friends. One day the narrator makes her a card with a red heart, and the sister puts her phone down to share a hug, books, a game, and a walk. After reading, students answer five multiple-choice questions by filling in the bubble next to the best answer. Every answer can be found right in the story, so children practice going back to the text to check their thinking.
What’s Included
- One page with the illustrated story “Sister is Always Talking on the Phone!”
- One page with five multiple-choice comprehension questions and a Name and Date line
- A complete answer key
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
First, the story uses short sentences and familiar words, so early readers can focus on meaning instead of sounding out every word. Second, the questions ask about key details from the beginning, middle, and end of the story, which teaches children to reread and look for evidence. Third, the gentle family theme about sharing time together makes reading feel personal and gives kids something real to talk about.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Read the story aloud first, then have children read it on their own or with a partner. Before answering the questions, ask students to retell the story in order. Talk about how the narrator solved her problem in a kind way, and invite children to share a favorite thing they do with a brother, sister, or friend. You can use the Sister Is Always Talking on the Phone reading comprehension worksheet in a reading center, as a quick check after a guided reading lesson, or as homework practice.
