About this resource
Description
Kindergarten readers are learning to hold a short text in mind and answer questions about it, and they are also learning what each number really means. This Things that come in 9s Reading Comprehension Worksheet practices both at once. The short story is about the number nine: it comes after eight, a baseball team has nine players, a tic-tac-toe board has nine little squares, and some golf games have nine holes. Then it asks children to look at the game board and hold up nine fingers. Every sentence is short, and every word is one a Kindergartner can read or sound out, so the effort goes into understanding rather than decoding.
The first page pairs the story with a bright clay-style picture of a tic-tac-toe board on a picnic table, so children can count all nine squares for themselves. Five multiple-choice questions follow on their own page, each with three choices and a big bubble to fill in. The questions are spread across all three paragraphs, so a child has to look back at the whole story instead of the first line only. Read the story aloud together first, then let students answer on their own and point to the sentence that proves each answer.
What’s Included
- A one-page story about things that come in nines, with a full-color tic-tac-toe picture
- Five multiple-choice comprehension questions with three choices each
- A complete answer key
Why It Helps Kids
First, it builds early reading comprehension with a text short enough to reread. Second, it connects the number nine to real things children can see and count, from the squares on a game board to their own fingers, which makes counting meaningful. Third, the look-back questions teach children that answers live in the text, a habit they will use in every grade.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Draw a tic-tac-toe board and count the nine squares together before playing a round. Line up nine blocks as a baseball team and count the players aloud. Use this Kindergarten numbers worksheet as a warm-up, and pair the things that come in 9s reading comprehension worksheet with the other stories in the series so children can compare threes, sixes, nines and tens.
