Little Brother

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is centered around a short story called “Little Brother,” which is aimed at kindergarten students to help them practice their reading comprehension skills. The story describes the relationship between John and his little brother Jimmy, highlighting the situations where Jimmy gets into trouble by trying to imitate John. After reading the story, students are prompted to answer a question about the name of the little brother and to check the boxes next to items that caused Jimmy trouble. The format is designed to test the student’s understanding of the narrative and their ability to identify key details.

The worksheet is crafted to teach students how to identify specific information from a text and understand character dynamics within a story. By asking for the little brother’s name, it checks the student’s ability to recall facts. The checkbox section serves to evaluate whether the students can correctly associate the consequences of actions described in the story. This exercise not only improves reading comprehension but also encourages the development of critical thinking by asking students to analyze the behavior of the characters and the outcomes of their actions.
