Heatwave Adventure Worksheet

Read the story

Read the passage, then answer the questions.

Rhys pressed her cool hands against her cheeks and looked at the weather report. The afternoon temperature had climbed to 34°C. Her dad suggested staying inside until the sun was lower, so Rhys set out to make the day more comfortable. She poured water into a shallow garden tub and dipped her feet in while she read. Then she put a jug of lemonade in the fridge and made a paper fan with bright blue stripes. Before long, her cousin Sophie arrived. They sat beneath the shade of the kitchen table, with the fan between them, and played a game of guessing animals. Rhys noticed that their elderly neighbour, Mr Green, was carrying shopping bags along the sunny path. She asked Dad if they could help. Dad carried the heavier bag while Rhys passed Mr Green a cold drink she had prepared. He thanked them and rested in the shade for a few minutes. Later, Rhys and Sophie moved to the coolest room in the house, where the curtains kept out the strong sunlight. They sketched destinations where they might escape the summer heat. As evening arrived, the air began to move gently and the heat felt less intense. Rhys was pleased: a little planning and a kind gesture had made the hot afternoon much easier.
