Reading Inference Worksheet Generator

Build a fresh reading-detective sheet in seconds. Each short story is followed by multiple-choice questions whose answers are never stated outright: muddy boots and pink cheeks mean it rained and she was playing outside. Pick one to three stories per page from twelve, then print straight from your browser with or without an answer key. Tuned for Grade 2 through Grade 4.

Twelve short stories where the answer is never written down: muddy boots mean it rained, seven candles mean a seventh birthday. “New stories” picks a different set and reshuffles the options.
