Questions about Topic and Facts
What does the Topic and Facts worksheet cover?
It practises naming the topic and giving a fact that goes with it — 2 questions for Kindergarten, all on Common Core RI.K.2: Say what the book was mostly about, and give some facts from it. The instruction to pupils is “Read the text, then answer the questions”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
Which Common Core standard does Topic and Facts practise?
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.K.2 — RI.K.2, in the Reading: Informational Text domain for Kindergarten. The published standard reads: “With prompting and support, identify the main topic and retell key details of a text.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
What age or grade is this worksheet for?
Topic and Facts is written for Kindergarten, typically ages 5-6. It is one of the sheets on RI.K.2, so it suits any pupil working at that standard — including older pupils revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
Does Topic and Facts come with an answer key?
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.
How many different versions of Topic and Facts 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.
Is Topic and Facts free to print and photocopy?
Yes. Topic and Facts, 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.
