Lighthouse Gaps

In this worksheet, every fifth word in a passage has been removed, and students must use context to fill in the missing information. They must rely on overall story meaning, sentence structure, and narrative flow to determine appropriate replacements. Because answers may vary slightly, students must think critically about word choice and meaning. The activity promotes fluency and comprehension by encouraging close reading of every sentence. It also strengthens understanding of cohesion in narrative structure. Students practice predicting language patterns while maintaining logical consistency. This helps develop both reading confidence and flexible thinking.
