3rd Grade Informational Comprehension Task Cards

Description

3rd Grade Informational Comprehension Task Cards are an informational standards-based resource. Each informational standard comes with 5 stories and 6 follow-up questions for comprehension. They come with recording sheets, as well for the students to write their comprehension answers on. The task cards fit 4 to a page, so you can print, cut, and put on a binder ring.

*There is now a digital component included in this resource. The comprehension task cards are now created in Google Slides. You can get access to the digital versions on page 5 of the PDF.*

Each standard (9 standards):
-5 texts
-6 questions for each story
-Numbered for easy organization
-Question sheets for assessment
(RI3.9 is set up a bit differently. There are 2 texts [each 2 pages] and only 4 questions since one of the stories takes up 2 task card slots!)

So, there are 45 passages in all!

This resource is included in a Reading bundle for 3rd grade. Save big money when buying this product with the Informational set, too.
