Item details

This Grade 2 pack collects 8 passages on the theme "Science Articles": 1 story, 5 articles and 2 how-to texts. All the text was written for this set, so the stories and articles will be new to your reader, and every one comes with 4 questions.

Inside you will find Why Do We See Rainbows?, What Magnets Can Do, How to Grow a Bean in a Bag, The Water Cycle, Leo’s Shadow Surprise, Solids, Liquids, and Gases, How to Test What Floats and The Moon Changes Shape.

Every text is between 91 and 105 words long (average 98). Printed in roomy Andika print, a typeface designed for early readers. Each of the 8 passages gets its own page, with the questions printed below it on the same sheet.

Across the pack there are 32 questions: 24 multiple-choice items (four choices each) and 8 written-response items with lines for the answer. The skills covered are detail, cause and effect, sequence, inference, vocabulary, character and main idea.

Sample question from "What Magnets Can Do" (cause and effect): What happens when two of the same poles face each other? Correct answer: A, They push apart. Short-answer example, "Solids, Liquids, and Gases": What happens when water gets very hot? The key gives this sample response: It boils and turns into steam, which is a gas.

Your download is a single ZIP holding the 10-page worksheet PDF twice, sized for US Letter and for A4. An answer key (2 pages) sits in the same ZIP as its own PDF: correct letters with the answer words, sample written answers, and a skill label beside each number. The pack opens with a contents page (titles, genres, skills, page numbers) and ends with a reading tracker plus a self-rating skills checklist.

Use it for a weekly reading routine, one passage per day. Reuse the PDF as often as you like for your own children or classroom. It suits homeschool language arts, literacy centers and homework folders.
