Teacher Introduction Comprehension Worksheet

Read the introduction below. Then answer each question using details from the text. For the longer answers, explain your thinking and include evidence.

A note from your teacher

Kia ora, readers! I’m your teacher, and I’m looking forward to exploring stories and ideas with you this year. I teach English, and I especially enjoy helping students find books that make them curious. A great story does not have to be long: it might be a poem, a comic, a play, or even a short article about something surprising. When I’m not teaching, I like walking beside the coast, baking bread, and listening to mystery podcasts. I once tried to bake a loaf shaped like a koru. It looked more like a lumpy cloud, but it tasted delicious! In our class, you will have time to read quietly, talk about different viewpoints, and try out your own writing. I want everyone to feel safe sharing an idea, even if it is still taking shape. We can disagree about a character’s choices, but we must explain our reasons and listen respectfully. One goal I have for us is to create a class collection of short stories by the end of the year. I hope we can make it full of unexpected characters and exciting beginnings. If you are not sure what to read, ask me. I’m always happy to help you find a place to start.
