Short Story Questions Answer Key

In this worksheet, students read a short passage about Emma and her weekly trips to the park. After reading, students answer a series of comprehension questions to demonstrate understanding of key details such as characters, actions, and setting. They are encouraged to think about what the text explicitly states and recall information to respond accurately. The worksheet also includes an extension prompt asking students to write two of their own questions about the story, allowing them to practice generating meaningful and relevant questions. This activity develops foundational reading comprehension skills and supports early questioning strategies.
