Questions about Reading a Diagram
What does the Reading a Diagram worksheet cover?
It practises saying what a diagram would need to label — 2 questions for Kindergarten, all on Common Core RI.K.7: Say what a picture in a fact book is showing you. The instruction to pupils is “Read the text, then answer the questions”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
Which Common Core standard does Reading a Diagram practise?
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.K.7 — RI.K.7, in the Reading: Informational Text domain for Kindergarten. The published standard reads: “With prompting and support, describe the relationship between illustrations and the text in which they appear (e.g., what person, place, thing, or idea in the text an illustration depicts).” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
What age or grade is this worksheet for?
Reading a Diagram is written for Kindergarten, typically ages 5-6. It is one of the sheets on RI.K.7, so it suits any pupil working at that standard — including older pupils revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
Does Reading a Diagram come with an answer key?
Yes. All 2 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 Reading a Diagram can I print?
25 versions, of which 24 ask genuinely different questions — this skill does not have 25 distinct questions to give, so the rest reorder them and no two pupils still share a paper. Set 1 downloads all 25 as one PDF.
Is Reading a Diagram free to print and photocopy?
Yes. Reading a Diagram, 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.
