Download PDFWhat is in the 12 worksheets?
Twelve original short passages with questions about details, sequence, main idea and inference. English and Spanish have independently written passages for fluent classroom reading. The collection is divided into four skill groups, with three different practice pages in each group. That is a real change in task or difficulty, not a recolor of one template.
How to choose a page
Start with the first group if the skill is new. Use the second or third sheet in a group for independent repetition, then move to the next heading when accuracy is steady. Every PDF is a single clean page with a unique footer label, so printed sheets do not get mixed up.
Printing and related practice
Print at actual size on Letter or A4. The worksheets are generated as vectors, so numbers, rules and answer boxes stay crisp. Browse the category links around this page to move to the prerequisite or next skill.
