About this printable

This printable is a student-facing checklist for retrieval-style reading questions. It lists nine explicit checking steps (e.g., read the question, look back in the text, use words as evidence, summarise) alongside three tick-box columns (Yes / Sometimes / Not yet). The bottom third provides structured self-assessment scoring, a short peer-assessment box, and a teacher feedback box. Use it to scaffold evidence-based answers and to make self/peer assessment routines explicit.
