Community Helpers Reading Passage

Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher

"Community Helpers Reading Passage" is written for 1st Grade (Ages 6-7), and it covers C3 Framework RI.1.1. If your little one is a year younger but already steady on Community Helpers, the page still works. You may just need to read the instructions out loud. And if they are older and read about helpers never quite stuck, this is a short review rather than busywork.

What does this worksheet teach?

⌄

The story, A Walk Through Town, follows Maya and her dad past a crossing guard, a mail carrier, a baker and a veterinarian. Five multiple-choice questions follow, such as "Who helps Maya cross the street?" On page 2, question 6 asks children to choose one helper and write how that helper helps the town. The directions on the page read: Read the story. Then circle the letter of the best answer. An answer key is included.

Can I use this read about helpers worksheet for homeschool or classroom?

⌄

Yes, both. We made it for 1st Grade Community Helpers, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with read about helpers. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.

Is there an answer key?

⌄

Yes. All 4 sheets have an answer key.

What age are read about helpers worksheets for?
