UKS2 Science - Famous Scientists Reading Comprehension Bundle

This reading comprehension bundle contains six activities about the lives of some of the most famous scientists throughout history.

It includes individual activities on:
Albert Einstein
Sir Isaac Newton
Charles Darwin
Marie Curie
Stephen Hawking
Galileo

Students have to read the text and then answer questions. The resource is ideal for homework activities, reading group activities, guided reading, exam/test preparation etc.

Each worksheet requires NO PREP and has a body of text that students need to read through thoroughly; then they can use the text to find the comprehension and grammar answers. All texts then have an extension activity for those fast finishers.

Answers, for teacher use, are on the final page of the document.

Time allowance per activity ( one hour)
5 minutes - read through the text individually.
40 minutes - answer questions using the text as guidance (including extension activity)
15 minutes - Teacher and students go through the text and answers.
