Questions about Reading One Source

What does the Reading One Source worksheet cover?

It practices gathering information from a source — 2 questions for Kindergarten to Grade 2, all on C3 Framework D3.1.K-2: Gather what you need from one or two sources, choosing them for a reason. The instruction to students is “Look at the source, then answer the questions”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.

Which C3 Framework indicator does Reading One Source practice?

D3.1.K-2, under Evaluating Sources and Using Evidence for Kindergarten to Grade 2. The published indicator reads: “Gather relevant information from one or two sources while using the origin and structure to guide the selection.” The worksheet assesses that indicator rather than a paraphrase of it.

What age or grade is this worksheet for?

Reading One Source is written for Kindergarten to Grade 2, typically ages 7-8. It is one of the sheets on D3.1.K-2, so it suits any student working at that standard — including older students revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.

Does Reading One Source 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 One Source 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 Reading One Source free to print and photocopy?

Yes. Reading One Source, 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.
