Description
This Second Grade Reading Comprehension packet is designed to help students who are reading at Guided Reading Levels K and L (DRA Levels 20 - 24) develop strong reading comprehension skills.
This resource is generally appropriate for use in second grade or as a third grade beginning of the year review packet.
To provide flexibility, for use in distance learning and/or a classroom setting, the following options are offered:
1) A link to this document in Google Slides™
2) Ready for use with Easel by TpT™ (the new and enhanced TpT digital tool)
3) Printable, as a traditional PDF in full color
4) Printable, as a traditional PDF in an ink-saving black and white version
Fifteen passages are included. With each story, there are two pages of questions. The first page is a worksheet that includes four text-based multiple choice questions. These questions prompt students to find evidence in the text, to consider author's purpose and to differentiate fact from opinion.
The second page is comprised of short answer and extended answer writing prompts. Depending on the length and complexity of the responses, there are either two or three written response questions for each passage.
These passages are perfect for close reading lessons. As students are learning to use evidence to support their thinking, I have them find and highlight the section of text they use to justify their answer. Two options include:
★ Color coded highlighting - Students highlight the answer to each question in a different color.
★ Numbered highlighting - Students highlight evidence within the text and then write the question number beside the highlighted evidence.
I also use these passages for choral reading, fluency work, homework, and literacy centers.
The following passages are included in this pack:
Redwood Trees
The Amazing Elephant Trunk
All About Helicopters
All About Hippos
All About Soil
Lions and Tigers
Birds and Reptiles
States of Matter
Elephant and Monkey
Silly Simon
Silly Simon's Revenge
Rabbit's Great Escape
The Mirror
Tug of War
The Dog and His Bone

Please note: An answer key is included for the multiple choice questions. For many of the written response questions, answers can vary and are considered correct as long as the student logically uses evidence from the text to support his or her answer.
