Allow children to apply their reading skills using our Year 2 Cassie Norman Story reading comprehension.

This The Adventures of Cassie Norman reading activity contains an extract from a story about a young girl following a strange map and exploring a mysterious jungle, As well as being a story text, this resource is also a great reading comprehension activity that includes a wide range of questions covering all five reading content domains to help your children develop, improve and practice their reading skills.

With our reading skills resources, you have the flexibility to decide how to use the text and the questions: you can give the whole text and all of the questions, target questions for specific domains, or go page by page using only questions that are related to that part of the text. We've also included a time-saving answer matrix to make marking easier and for making self or peer marking more accessible.
