This worksheet is asking you to think about a story you read — specifically, what problem the main character faced and how they solved it.
Since no specific story was given, I’ll use a common example from children’s fiction: *“The Three Little Pigs.”*
Let’s break it down step by step:
---
Problem:
The three little pigs need to build houses to protect themselves from the Big Bad Wolf. But the first two pigs build weak houses (straw and sticks), which the wolf easily blows down. The third pig builds a strong brick house — but now the wolf is still trying to get in!
So the main problem =
The Big Bad Wolf keeps trying to blow down their houses and eat them.
---
Steps taken to solve the problem:
→ Step 1: The first pig builds a straw house → Wolf blows it down → Pig runs to second pig’s stick house.
→ Step 2: The second pig’s stick house gets blown down too → Both pigs run to third pig’s brick house.
→ Step 3: The third pig’s brick house stands strong → Wolf tries to come down chimney → Third pig puts pot of boiling water under chimney → Wolf falls in and runs away forever.
---
Solution:
The third pig’s smart thinking and hard work building a strong brick house — plus setting a trap with boiling water — finally stops the wolf for good. All three pigs are safe.
---
Final Answer:
Problem: The Big Bad Wolf keeps blowing down the pigs’ houses and trying to eat them.
Step 1: First pig’s straw house is destroyed; he escapes to second pig’s house.
Step 2: Second pig’s stick house is destroyed; both escape to third pig’s brick house.
Step 3: Wolf tries to enter through chimney; third pig traps him with boiling water — wolf runs away.
Solution: The pigs stay safe in the brick house after trapping the wolf.
