Set 1. Prints on its own sheet.
It practises answering a reader's question by adding to your writing — 2 questions for Kindergarten, all on Common Core W.K.5: Listen to a question about your writing, and add something to answer it. The instruction to pupils is “Draw in the space, then write on the lines”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.K.5 — W.K.5, in the Writing domain for Kindergarten. The published standard reads: “With guidance and support from adults, respond to questions and suggestions from peers and add details to strengthen writing as needed.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
Add One More Detail is written for Kindergarten, typically ages 5-6. It is one of the sheets on W.K.5, 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. Add One More Detail, 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.
