Reading Comprehension 1: Level 9

The Iditarod Trail and the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race are the focus of a comprehension assessment. Readers must identify the main idea of the passage, draw inferences, define words using context clues, and identify the organizational structure of the passage. Because the assessment includes a detailed answer key that explains how to determine the correct response, the resource could be used as a self-check or as the basis of a reading strategies lesson.
