A Snowy Morning Reading Comprehension Worksheets for 1st Grade

What your child practices

"A Snowy Morning" is a 1st grade reading comprehension set (Grade 1 in Canada): 2 worksheets and 12 questions built around one short text. Early readers build comprehension by retelling, spotting key details and talking about what happened, so short passages with simple questions are ideal at this stage. The set includes Reading Comprehension and Sequence of Events. It is aligned to Common Core RL.1.1, which focuses on asking and answering questions about key details in a story. It also touches RL.1.2, retelling a story and finding its central message. Every PDF prints on US letter paper, with the answer key on page 2 for quick checking. Finished a sheet? The online version reads every question aloud and checks answers instantly.

Tips for parents

• Read the questions aloud for early readers, and let them point to the answer in the pictures or text.
• Ask your child to underline the sentence that proves each answer. Finding evidence is the real skill.
• Talk about one new or tricky word from the passage and use it at dinner.
