Set 1. Prints on its own sheet.
It practises answering from experience rather than from a book — 2 questions for Grade 1, all on Common Core W.1.8: Use what you remember, or a given book, to answer a question. The instruction to pupils is “Write on the lines. Use the checklist”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.1.8 — W.1.8, in the Writing domain for Grade 1. The published standard reads: “With guidance and support from adults, recall information from experiences or gather information from provided sources to answer a question.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
Answer from What You Remember is written for Grade 1, typically ages 6-7. It is one of the sheets on W.1.8, so it suits any pupil working at that standard — including older pupils revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
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.
25 versions, of which 14 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.
Yes. Answer from What You Remember, 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.
Use what you remember, or a given book, to answer a question.
