Looking for a fascinating fictional narrative resource, our Year 3 A Happy Accident reading comprehension could be ideal for you.

This resource is a fictional narrative about the forming of the seasons by a group known as the Infinites and the mishap that turns out to be a happy accident, with a choice of comprehension questions covering all eight reading content domains. We've also included some more in-depth questions for more detailed written answers.

We've also included a time-saving answer matrix to make marking easier and for making self or peer marking more accessible.
