These are summer reading comprehension passages for Key Stage 2 that include a range of nonfiction summer texts for KS2, whilst also giving you a selection of summer reading comprehension activities. Each summer reading passage has a nonfiction reading text, followed by four comprehension questions. There are then three summer themed reading activities, which can be used with any of the passages.

Passages are:

  • Pool Day (A poem)

  • 5 non-fiction summer themed passages - one poem, one set of instructions, one menu, one non-chronological report and a postcard
  • 20 questions for KS2 - include questions on main idea and key details, quoting accurately from the text and vocabulary questions
  • 3 reading comprehension activities - these can be used with any of the passages. There’s a comparison worksheet, a vocabulary worksheets and a main idea and key details worksheet
  • Black and white versions of all passages and activities
  • Front cover, so the pack can be given to students as an independent learning booklet (if you wish)

Your class will enjoy the variety of passages and tasks. There is lots to keep them busy, as they work through the questions and activities.

The passages and activities could be printed out and given to the children as a pack. This would make it perfect for a supply teacher day.

There’s not much to prepare… All you need to do is print the sheets out and hand to students!

The three activity sheets are designed to delve deeper into reading strategy:

  • The comparing worksheet requires students to find similarities and differences between passages
  • The vocabulary worksheet requires pupils to find synonyms for particular pieces of vocabulary within the passage
  • The main idea and key details sheet requires students to find two main points and key details for the passage of their choice
