Instructional Ideas

  • Add to a reading assessment or language arts homework packet
  • Encourage young readers to share their responses with a partner before participating in a class discussion
  • Use the reading activity as a writing prompt, during which your class can write about an event in their life, as well as four similar comprehension questions for peers to answer

Classroom Considerations

  • The story is not very engaging and feels incomplete, but it is short and the questions are good for checking understanding

Pros

  • Questions are helpful for addressing the levels of Bloom's Taxonomy
  • Single-page format makes the worksheet an easy addition to a packet or quiz

Cons

  • The second question is missing a question mark
