4th grade students are curious and full of wonderment. It's best if you put their energies to work reading appropriate leveled texts and practicing reading skills. And what better way to do that than with the activities on this page? This page has all of my reading worksheets written at the 4th grade level. I used this open source tool to determine the readability scores of my worksheets, but you should read and approve each of them yourself for quality and appropriateness before giving them to children. I encourage you to allow worksheets written for the next two grade levels as well. Reading scores vary wildly based on which algorithm one uses. The readability scores on this page are an average of those score. Still, it's sensible to open up the gates a bit to allow for a richer variety of appropriately leveled content.

I’m so thankful to have found this site and these resources. My 10 year old son is in danger of being retained in fourth grade because he has not passed his 4th grade reading benchmarks. He’s a bright boy and being held back would be devastating for him and not in his best interest. I am frantically trying to find resources to help him and I am excited to work with him using your worksheets. Thank you so much for sharing these.

Each worksheet (as well as the spelling curriculum ) also includes a cross-curricular focus on earth science, physical science, history, social sciences, mathematics and life sciences.

Make it fun, make it interesting.

By the time students reach the fourth grade, they have mastered the basics of phonics and decoding and are starting to dig deeper into understanding what they’re reading. It’s a great time to introduce learning strategies that will help them be lifelong readers. Here are a dozen ways to boost fourth grade reading comprehension.

1. Color-code your thinking

Taking notes and highlighting reading passages with color can help students differentiate, retain, and transfer knowledge as well as pay attention to critical information for meaningful learning. Teach your students to use colors to highlight passages as they read to help them identify features such as main idea, details and vocabulary words. Or use different colors to mark different sections of a graphic organizer.

2. Try think-alouds

Another way to improve fourth grade comprehension is through think-alouds. While reading a text to students, share the questions and answers that are going through your mind. For example, “How does the story make you feel?”

8. Learn about close-reading strategies

11. Focus on theme

Image source: Upper Elementary Snapshots

12. Read between the lines

Learning to make inferences is a key literacy skill and something all good readers do. When students pause while they are reading to ask questions and make connections, it strengthens their comprehension. For more on this topic, visit Teaching With a Mountain View .
