Information
Description
What It Is:
This is a reading comprehension worksheet designed to help students make connections while reading. It prompts students to record the date and book title, then identify a 'text to text,' 'text to self,' or 'text to world' connection they made while reading. The worksheet provides space for students to write which part of the text triggered the connection and what it made them think of. There are three sets of prompts on the page.
Grade Level Suitability:
This worksheet is suitable for grades 2-5. The sentence stems and prompts provide scaffolding for younger students, while the open-ended nature of the connection prompts allows for more complex thinking from older students.
Why Use It:
This worksheet helps students actively engage with the text and improve their reading comprehension. It encourages critical thinking by prompting students to make personal connections, relate the text to other texts they've read, and connect the text to the world around them. This promotes deeper understanding and retention of the material.
How to Use It:
Students should first read the assigned text. Then, they should fill in the date and book title at the top of each section. As they read, they should identify moments where they make a text to text, text to self, or text to world connection. They then record which type of connection they made, the specific part of the text that triggered the connection, and what it made them think of.
Target Users:
This worksheet is beneficial for elementary school students who are learning to improve their reading comprehension skills. It is particularly helpful for students who struggle with making connections to the text. It can be used in whole-class instruction, small group activities, or as an independent practice activity.
