Question 1 Problem and Solution What is Jen and James s problem? To answer this question, I had to reread the text. I read that they were playing outside but then it began to rain. This must be their problem. Because I can put my finger on the answer, this is a Right There question. (A) Question 2 Problem and Solution How did they solve the problem? To answer this question, I looked back at the story and saw that they decided to play under the picnic table. The table became a tent for them! This must be why the title of the story is the Picnic Tent. Because I had to look in a few places to find the answer, this is a Think and Search question. (B) Question 3 Context Clues What is plastic? To answer this question, I read the sentences with that word in it again. Plastic is used to describe the tablecloth, so it must be a kind of material.

It says they did mazes under the table until it stopped raining. Because I can point to the answer in the story, this is a Right There question. (B) Question 5 Retell Events in Order Short Response Question: Retell the story in your own words. To retell this story, I need to tell what happened first, next, and last. First, Jen and James packed a picnic and toys for the park. Next, they played at the park and it started to rain. Finally, they made a tent out of the table and did mazes. Because the answers are in more than one place in the story, this question is a Think and Search question.

Question 1 Retell Events in Order What comes out of a butterfly egg? To find the answer to this question I looked at the beginning of the text. It says a caterpillar crawls out of the egg once it hatches. Because the answer is in one place in the text, this is a Right There question. (C) Question 2 Context Clues What does hatches mean? To answer this question, I read the sentence with that word in it again. It says a caterpillar crawls out after the egg hatches, so “hatches” must mean “to come out.” Since I found the answer in one place, this is a Right There question. (C) Question 3 Charts/Labels After it s a caterpillar, it turns into a To answer this question, I looked at the chart and read the labels. I see that the caterpillar turns into a pupa. Because I found the answer in two places, this is a Think and Search question.

Then the caterpillar eats and crawls and eats and grows. When it is big enough, it begins to change. Next, the caterpillar makes a hard shell around itself. It hangs upside down. Inside, the caterpillar changes. Now it is called a pupa. About ten days later, the shell cracks. At last, a butterfly comes out. At first, its wings are wet. When its wings are dry, the butterfly flies away. It begins a new life. Butterfly 3 Pupa 2 Caterpillar 1 Egg 4 Butterfly Caterpillar ? ? 314315 Macmillan/McGraw-Hill ? Now answer Numbers 1 to 5.
