What your child practices

"The Sun" is a kindergarten reading comprehension set: 2 worksheets and 9 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 Vocabulary in Context. The skill matches Common Core RI.K.1, the standard for finding key details in a nonfiction text. It also touches RI.K.2, identifying the main topic or main idea of a nonfiction text. Each PDF includes its own answer key on page 2, ready for you or your child to check. After printing, the online version gives instant feedback and reads each question aloud.

Tips for parents

  • Read the questions aloud for early readers, and let them point to the answer in the pictures or text.
  • If an answer is wrong, send your child back to the text rather than giving the answer.
  • Ask your child to underline the sentence that proves each answer. Finding evidence is the real skill.
