Students really start coming into their own during the 5th grade. They are developing their personalities and identities. More importantly, they are developing their reading skills. This page ought to help with that. It has all of the worksheets that I've written at the 5th grade level. I used this great site to determine the readability scores of these worksheets, but you should read and approve each of them yourself for quality and appropriateness before giving them to your students. There are many different formulas that one can use to determine the readability score of a text, and the scores that they produce vary quite a bit. I'm using an average of five different scores for these texts. For a better selection of appropriate texts for your 5th grade students, I encourage you to allow texts written two grade levels above and below by clicking the button beneath this text.

This cause-and-effect 5th-grade reading comprehension e-worksheet works on students identifying the cause and effect of the relationship between the Sun, Moon, and Earth. Students will read the short comprehension passages and answer multiple-choice questions to check for understanding.

What does cause mean?

What does effect mean?

What does cause and effect mean?

Cause and Effect Keyword Flashcards

Here are some interactive keyword flashcards that can help you identify where you might find information about the cause and effect in a text. Flip the flashcard and get an example sentence using each signal word.

Sally woke up late. Therefore she missed the school bus.

Billy had such a funny personality that everyone always laughed with him.

She whispered because she didn't want the teacher to hear.

Read the following nonfiction passage a few times by clicking the right arrow and then scroll down to take the checkpoint quiz. As you're reading, think about the cause and effect of the relationship between the Sun, Earth, and Moon.

The Earth, Sun, and Moon are the three space objects that impact our lives the most. The Earth is the planet we live on, the planet under your feet right now. Therefore, without the Earth, we wouldn't have anywhere to live. The Sun is a star that warms our planet and gives us heat and light. So, it is very powerful. Earth's Moon creates tides and makes Earth more livable.

The Moon orbits the Earth, and the Earth orbits the Sun. If the Earth was thrown off its orbit, the Sun's gravity could cause the Earth to fly straight toward the burning Sun; luckily, the Moon’s gravity pulls on the Earth and keeps us safe and in orbit.

The Earth is around 383,400 km from the Moon, and the Sun is around 147 million km from Earth. Though they are different distances, they look the same size in the sky. This is because the Sun is around 109 times bigger than the Earth.

Because they appear to be the same size, the Sun, Earth, and Moon work together to create eclipses. So, we get a solar eclipse whenever the Moon is directly between Earth and the Sun, causing all of the sun’s light to be blocked by the Moon. When the Earth moves between the Moon and Sun, the Earth's shadow darkens the surface of the Moon, so much so that we get a lunar eclipse. The Moon will often turn a dark shade of red due to the change in sunlight.

Reading Comprehension Cause and Effect Question Quiz

Read through the comprehension passages and try out the quiz. Got a question wrong? Don't worry. Just press reset, and the question will start over.

Select the appropriate cause from the following effects.

The planet is warm, and humans are able to see. What is the cause?

Choose the best answer from the choices below

The Earth orbiting the Sun.

The Sun giving off light and heat.

The Moon pulling on the earth.

The earth remains safely in orbit. What is the cause?

The Moon pulling on the Earth.

The Sun creating heat.

The seasons changing.

A lunar eclipse is in progress. What is the cause?

The Moon blocking the Sun’s light.

The Earth's shadow darkens the surface of the Moon.

The Earth being around 383,400 km from the Moon.

The Moon is directly between Earth and the Sun, causing all of the Sun’s light to be blocked. What is the effect?

A solar eclipse takes place.

A lunar eclipse takes place.

The text around unknown words can hint at their meaning, even when the word is unfamiliar. In this 5th-grade reading comprehension worksheet, students will practice identifying the meaning of new words to build their vocabularies using context clues in the text. Scroll down for the interactive reading comprehension multiple-choice quiz questions based on the texts.

What are context clues?

As you’re reading the following passages, pay attention to the words in bold and the context clues that help you understand the meaning.

Read the following passages a few times by clicking the right arrow and then scroll down to take the checkpoint quiz.

Figurative language makes stories, texts, and sentences way more interesting. When working on reading comprehension for 5th graders- students need to understand how devices like metaphors and similes give context and depth to what they read.

Scroll down for the comprehension multiple-choice questions quiz based on the text.

Flip the flashcard to discover the meaning.

What are similes?

Similes compare two things using the words "as" or "like." They are a creative way to compare. For example, "life is like a box of candy."

What are metaphors?

Metaphors can be short or extended, and instead of using "like" or "as," writers find other artistic ways to describe and compare two things. For example, " You are my sunshine" is a metaphor.

What are idioms?

An idiom is a type of metaphor or simile that people use to describe something. They are often cultural and contextual, depending on where you are. For example, " under the weather" means the person feels sick or off.

Here are some short passages. As you’re reading, think about what type of figurative language the author uses.

Passage One

8 Fun Reading Comprehension Games for 4th and 5th Grade

Share this Post

Teaching reading skills can be daunting; there is no doubt about that! We have to help each other out, so I want to share some fun reading comprehension games to make it just a little bit easier! It is just so rewarding to see your students engaged in their learning while building new skills and brushing up on old ones! There are reading comprehension activities for every month of the school year to ease your mind and  have some fun with reading comprehension!

Reading Comprehension Games

1.Monthly Themed Reading Passages

Having a high interest reading passage for each month is a great way to keep things fresh when teaching reading comprehension! I love the idea of having a new reading passage with questions every month to keep students engaged and reading a variety of texts! With a new selection of reading passages every month, there is something for every student to love!

2. Snowy Synonyms

How perfect is a snowball themed synonym worksheet for January? I find that bringing a fun theme into a lesson really boosts student engagement! I think it is just so fun to celebrate each season and new month that the school year brings while practicing all of those hard earned skills!

3. Haunted Homonyms

What better way to celebrate the fall than with some haunted reading comprehension games? Haunted homonyms is such a fun way to brush up on and boost reading comprehension after the first few months of the school year!

4. Cause and Effect Collaborative Learning

Practicing cause and effect relationships is essential to boosting reading comprehension and I love the idea of an interactive activity that students can do in groups! Students get to keep their learning fresh by practicing in the form of a matching game that is prepped and ready for your use! 

5. True or False Worksheets

I swear true or false questions have a way of tricking students into thinking they are playing a game! I’ll take it! I love incorporating true or false worksheets following a reading passage or lesson for students to review what they have learned!

6. Monthly Reading Centers

Reading centers are some of my favorite reading comprehension games and activities. Not only do they keep students moving and interested in what they are doing, but having low prep centers to use for review or a reading block is such a relief as a teacher!

7. Reading Response Questions

Providing questions or reading response prompts following a reading passage is a tried and true reading comprehension activity. I love to make it feel more like a reading comprehension game by keeping things fresh with new monthly themed response questions and pages!

8. Monthly Themed Poetry Activities

I think poetry activities are such a fun way to incorporate reading and writing skills in the classroom. How fun is it to practice reading comprehension skills with a new themed poetry activity every month! Students have the opportunity to be creative and show what they know!

Reading comprehension skills are so so important but shouldn’t have to be boring! They also shouldn’t require hours of prep from you, which is why I have made a bundle of 9 months worth of reading comprehension games, worksheets, stations and more!  The complete bundle is a life saver to have on hand year after year when you are looking for a way to freshen up your reading block and help your students grow!
