A reading comprehension activity about the strange crash that occurred in Roswell in 1947. The informational text looks at some of the main theories about the crash and the government explanation. The reading comprehension resource is perfect for students in Year 3 or Year 4 who are learning about U.S. History.
The activity 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 ( 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
