Game Show Main Idea Answer Key

This worksheet turns main-idea practice into a game show, complete with multiple-choice questions and a clear, fun format. Students must identify main ideas, choose valid supporting details, and determine which details do not support a given idea. Each question reinforces a different facet of comprehension. The topics-gardening, thunderstorms, breakfast habits-keep the reading engaging and relatable. The design helps teachers quickly assess understanding while giving students immediate practice with critical concepts. It works well for centers, test prep, or whole-class competitive play.
