About This Worksheet
This worksheet is all about helping students carefully read and decide what is true or not true based on the text. It may seem simple, but it actually requires students to go back into the passage and double-check what they read. That habit-going back to the text-is something we really want to build early.
Curriculum and Grade Alignment
This worksheet supports Grade 2 students in identifying key details and verifying information. It aligns with Common Core RI.2.1 and RL.2.1. It also connects to TEKS comprehension standards.
Student Tasks
Students read the passage and then answer “Yes” or “No” to each statement. To do this correctly, they need to remember (or reread) what actually happened in the story.
Common Challenges and Misconceptions
Students may answer based on what sounds right instead of what the text says. Some may not go back to check their answers. A helpful reminder is, “Show me where you found that.”
Implementation Guidance
Teachers can model how to find proof in the passage. Parents can ask, “Can you point to the part that shows that’s true?”
