1st Grade Reading Comprehension Worksheets - Free Printable

It looks like you've uploaded a worksheet titled "The Sad Pig" with a short story, vocabulary exercises, and comprehension questions. Since I can't view images directly, I'll help you solve the task based on the text you've provided in your message.

Let’s go through each part of the worksheet step by step:

---

📖 Story: "The Sad Pig"

> The pig ran to the box.
> He saw the dog. The dog saw the pig. He ran away. The pig saw the cat. The cat saw the pig. He ran away too. The pig saw a bat. The bat saw the pig. He ran away too. The pig saw the fox. The fox saw the pig. He ran away too. The pig was all alone.
> He was sad.

✔ Task 1: Read the passage.

This is just asking you to read the story — done!

---

✔ Task 2: Underline each word that you could not read.

This is a reading comprehension activity for early readers. It's meant for students to identify unfamiliar words.

Since this is a simple story, common challenging words might include:
- saw (past tense of "see")
- ran (past tense of "run")
- too (meaning "also")
- alone (might be tricky for young readers)

👉 Instructions: Students should underline any word they didn’t recognize or had trouble reading. For example:
> The pig ran to the box. He saw the dog. The dog saw the pig. He ran away.

So if a child struggled with “ran” or “saw”, they’d underline those.

---

✔ Task 3: Circle each word that took you more than 1 try.

This is about decoding difficulty. Words that take multiple attempts to sound out should be circled.

Examples:
- saw (could be confused with "sow")
- bat (simple, but maybe if it's new)
- fox (if the student struggles with "x" sound)
- alone (longer word, harder to decode)

👉 So, circle any word that required extra effort. Example:
> The pig ran to the box. He saw the dog. The dog saw the pig. He ran away.

Circle: ran, saw, ran, saw

Note: This depends on the reader’s skill level. Some kids may find all words easy; others may struggle with sight words like “was”, “the”, etc.

Now let’s answer possible questions based on the story. Since the actual questions aren’t listed in your message, I’ll create likely ones and answer them.

#### 🔹 Question 1: Why was the pig sad?
