What is in this worksheet
This Grade 2 reading resource uses the passage The Scarf on the Fence followed by six comprehension questions. Learners identify the silver-star detail, Mateo’s notice, the lost-and-found box, his feeling, the purple scarf, and the school office.
Reading focus
The questions ask learners to track a short event sequence, connect actions with locations, and use a precise identifying detail from the passage. Three items use choices and three require short written responses.

How to use this worksheet
Ask the learner to number the main events, point to the sentence supporting each answer, and explain why the silver star was a stronger identifying detail than the scarf color.
