Main Idea & Details Graphic Organizer Worksheets Reading Comprehension Passages
Main idea is something we have to teach all year. Wouldn’t it be nice to have ready-to-go worksheets and graphic organizers right at your fingertips? These no-prep activities are just what you need! They teach students to find and discriminate between the main idea and supporting details in a hands-on and engaging way.
WHAT YOU WILL GET:
This resource includes two different types of worksheets to practice reading strategies in both printable and digital formats.
8 Reading Comprehension Worksheets
On each page, students will read a short story or informational passage and then use the text to answer comprehension questions. After completing this page, they will move on to the main idea and details activity:
8 Main Idea & Details Worksheets
These go along with the reading passages. Each page has a cut-and-glue graphic organizer. Students cut out four statements found in the comprehension story and glue them onto the graphic organizer to show which is the main idea and which are the supporting details.
In most of the passages, the main idea is explicitly stated. However, in several it is implied. There are plenty of details in the text to help readers determine the main point.
Answer keys are included.
OTHER SKILLS INCLUDED:
While these activities are designed to help teach main idea, some of the comprehension questions include practice with other reading skills as well including:
sequencing
cause and effect
making inferences
using context to determine meaning
finding text evidence
When answering the comprehension questions, I like to have my students highlight where they found the answers (as pictured on the cover). This shows me that they referred back to the text to find the information and reinforces the importance of using text evidence.
HOW TO USE THIS RESOURCE
These worksheets work well as homework, in literacy centers, or even for assessment. They are also excellent for students with a main idea IEP goal because they let you easily target the skill and collect specific data. The hands-on features are ideal for keeping students engaged.
Main Idea & Details Reading Comprehension Worksheets
Tired of the same old main idea worksheets? This no-prep resource will give your students plenty of practice in a new and engaging way! Includes 3 different types of activities that specifically target finding the main idea and supporting details.
WHAT YOU WILL GET:
13 main idea worksheets of 3 different types
Answer keys
Worksheet Set A:
Each page in this set features a short informational passage. Students will read the text and then answer two text-based questions (one true/false and one short response). At the bottom of the page are four sentences to cut out. Students will glue these onto the graphic organizer to show which is the main idea and which are the supporting details.
In some of the passages, the main idea is implied rather than explicitly stated. There are plenty of details in the text to help readers determine the main point. The answers to the other questions are found directly in the text. I like to have my students highlight where they found the answers (as pictured on the cover). This shows me that they referred back to the text to find the information.
Worksheet Set B
The second set of worksheets feature three different main idea statements. Students cut out the supporting details at the bottom and glue them under the correct main idea. The three main ideas deal with the similar topics, so students will have to read each detail carefully to determine which main idea it supports.
Worksheet Set C
These worksheets help students discern between supporting details and non-pertinent information. They will read a short passage and underline or highlight the sentence that does not support the main idea. Each page contains three passages.
These work well as homework, in literacy centers, or even for assessment. The cut-and-glue component helps students stay engaged and on task. And because each set of worksheets addresses main idea in a different way, you will be able to provide differentiated activities to your students.
