4th Grade Reading Comprehension Passages That Will ROCK Your Reading Block!

4th grade reading comprehension passages

4th Grade Reading Comprehension Passages That Will ROCK Your Reading Block…. that’s a pretty big promise, isn’t it?

But I’m totally serious.

I created color by number reading comprehension because I LOVED using reading passages in my classroom.

Students learn how to go back in the text.

They learn how to comprehend.

They learn how to interpret questions.

But… reading passages are tedious.

They take too long.

Sometimes the kids spend so much time reading the passage, they never get to the questions.

This 4th-grade reading comprehension color by number set solves all those problems.

Yep, it’s time for reading comprehension that students actually ENJOY.

4th grade reading comprehension passages

How does color by number reading comprehension work?

It’s super simple!

First, kids read the passage.

Next, they answer 4 comprehension questions.

Each answer choice has a color next to it.

The kids color the picture based on the answer that they chose.

In the end, their black & white picture is now colored!

Speaking of which, don’t forget to check out my blog post on 4 strategies to improve reading comprehension.

Why do these “rock”?

Just print!

Teachers are so busy – it is a relief to have something that is rigorous for your students yet requires little work on your part.

Just print and hand it out!

Short passages & questions

As I said previously, reading comprehension should not take an hour to complete.

We have so many standards to teach and are so busy each day, that reading comprehension should be relatively quick.

Practice the comprehension skills, and be done with it.

The passages on this reading comprehension are short.

Each passage has 4 questions.

This means more time for the rest of your day, and less time having to wait for students to finish a plethora of unnecessary questions.

Easy to grade

Each passage comes with an answer key and a completed picture.

Does the picture match? Great!

Does it not match? Check the answers to see what was marked incorrect.

Easy-peasy!

Motivating picture to color

Let kids be kids!

Kids LOVE coloring (heck, so do adults!).

Get kids excited about completing their reading comprehension with the fun color by number at the end.

I have heard from SO many teachers that their students actually take their time on these and don’t rush through because they “don’t want to mess up the picture” 🙂
