Questions about Which Would You Read?
What does the Which Would You Read? worksheet cover?
It practises choosing the kind of text that answers a given question — 8 questions for Grade 1, all on Common Core RL.1.5: Explain how a storybook is different from a book of facts. The instruction to pupils is “Tick the right answer”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
Which Common Core standard does Which Would You Read? practise?
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.1.5 — RL.1.5, in the Reading: Literature domain for Grade 1. The published standard reads: “Explain major differences between books that tell stories and books that give information, drawing on a wide reading of a range of text types.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
What age or grade is this worksheet for?

Does Which Would You Read? come with an answer key?
Yes. All 8 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 Which Would You Read? can I print?
25 — one per pupil, 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.
