Questions about Complete the Analogy
What does the Complete the Analogy worksheet cover?
It practices finishing a synonym or antonym analogy — 8 questions for Grade 4, all on Common Core L.4.5: Explain similes, metaphors, idioms, proverbs, antonyms and synonyms. The instruction to students is “Circle the right answer”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
Which Common Core standard does Complete the Analogy practice?
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.L.4.5 — L.4.5, under Language for Grade 4. The published standard reads: “Demonstrate understanding of figurative language, word relationships, and nuances in word meanings.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
What age or grade is this worksheet for?
Complete the Analogy is written for Grade 4, typically ages 9-10. It is one of the sheets on L.4.5, so it suits any student working at that standard — including older students revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
Does Complete the Analogy come with an answer key?
Yes. All 8 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.
How many different versions of Complete the Analogy can I print?
25 — one per student, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.
Is Complete the Analogy free to print and photocopy?
Yes. Complete the Analogy, its answer key and its 25 versions are free to print and photocopy for your own class, with no account, no email capture and no subscription at the download step. Please do not resell them or republish them as your own.
