Summarize and Paraphrase is a free printable Grade 5 English worksheet on recording a source in your own words, aligned to Common Core standard W.5.8. It prints 2 questions with an answer key on its own sheet of paper, in 25 versions, 15 of them with different questions, so no two students in the class work from the same page. Print it from the browser or download it as a PDF — no account, no email.
