Dinosaur Day Reading Comprehension

The Dinosaur Day Reading Comprehension worksheet is a fun and educational way for kids to practice reading, comprehension, and critical thinking. Created for learners in Kindergarten (K), 1st Grade, 2nd Grade, 3rd Grade, 4th Grade, and 5th Grade, this resource is ideal for use in any Elementary School setting across the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, or Australia. Children begin by selecting a short dinosaur-themed story. These engaging passages bring to life the excitement of Dinosaur Day—featuring roars, prehistoric adventures, and fascinating facts. Students are encouraged to use their imagination to visualize the story as they read. After reading, children complete fill-in-the-blank sentences to reinforce key vocabulary and details. Then, they answer “WH” questions—Who? What? When? Where? Why?—which help build comprehension and memory skills. Students in Kindergarten (K) and 1st Grade may enjoy reading with assistance, while those in 3rd Grade, 4th Grade, and 5th Grade can work more independently.
