This free printable my best friend worksheet builds comprehension through short passages and focused questions about main idea, details, and inference. Students learn to read for meaning, not just to decode words.

- Read aloud first: Read the passage aloud as a group before students answer, modeling fluent reading and think-aloud strategies.
- Question the text: Ask "why do you think...?" and "what clues told you...?" to push students beyond literal recall into inference.
- Retell practice: Have students retell the passage in their own words — a strong check of true comprehension.
