This Saint Valentine’s Day reading comprehension is divided into four sections from A to D with questions below each section. There are not more than 5 questions for each passage. See below for extra activities.
All four passages tell the story of Saint Valentine.
In the teacher’s notes, I have suggested questions to create interest before handing out the reading comprehension.
As a whole class activity, you can read the whole story and then ask questions about what you have read and asking some children/students to summarise, before small and/or independent group work.
The reading comprehension requires students to:
• Look for evidence in the passages
• Make inference
• Give their opinion
• Select correct answers from multiple choice questions
• Correct spelling errors in a paragraph (sight words, phonetically misspelt words and homophones).
The extra activities are:
Reading two paragraphs and correcting the spelling errors; and
Complete a short writing task – Write a sentence or two on what hope, kindness and love mean to them.
Optional: You can make the reading comprehension into a booklet.
NB: The reading comprehension pages include both UK and US spelling.
Thank you for your interest. Be sure to check out my other Saint Valentine resources.
