Description

Families are the first people a child learns to name, and a riddle about them is one of the friendliest ways to practice careful reading. This who is that reading comprehension worksheet gives a kindergartner three tiny riddles to read, each one giving clues about a person in a family and then asking the question in the title: who is that? One person knits a warm hat, one rides a red bike to school, and one drinks milk from a bottle. Every clue a child needs is right there in the sentences.

This kindergarten family worksheet is a three-page printable. Page one holds a colored-pencil picture of Grandma’s knitting basket and the short passage, page two holds five multiple-choice questions, and page three is the answer key. Children read the riddles first, on their own or with an adult, then fill in the bubble beside each best answer. The questions ask who does what, what each person makes or rides, and where the big brother goes, so every answer has to come from the words on the page.

What’s Included

  • 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
  • Answer key
  • 1 illustrated three-riddle passage and 5 multiple-choice questions

A who is that reading comprehension worksheet helps children in three ways. First, riddles teach readers to hold several clues in mind and put them together, which is the heart of making an inference. Second, it teaches text evidence at the earliest level: every correct answer is a word the child can point to on the page. Third, the fill-in-the-bubble format gives young readers an easy, low-stress way to answer before they can write much, and it looks like the tests they will meet later.

Teachers and parents can carry the idea off the page. Play a spoken version at home or in circle time: give two or three clues about someone in the child’s own family and let them guess who it is. Then trade places and let the child make up clues for you. Read the passage a second time and stop before each answer so the child can predict it. Finally, invite children to draw a family member and write one clue underneath it for a friend to solve.
