Free Reading Comprehension Practice
A brand-new short story every click — names, places and details change each time, so the five questions are always a real test of reading, never memory. Three levels, from first readers to confident 10–11 year olds. Check answers on the spot, or print the story and questions with a separate answer key.
Free forever — no sign-up, no ads. Every passage is an original story or article written for this site, with the answers kept separate until you ask for them.
Why fresh stories matter
Printed worksheets get memorised — children remember the answers, not the reading. Here the story is generated on the spot, so finding the answer always means going back into the text.
Three honest levels
Ages 5–7: short, simple, mostly one idea per sentence. Ages 8–9: two paragraphs with a small problem to follow. Ages 10–11: chapter-style stories with details spread across the text — the questions reward careful re-reading.
Wrong answers teach too
Checking shows the right answer for anything missed — the cue to hunt for that sentence in the story together. That hunt is the skill itself.
Keep practising
Pair reading with numbers: the math worksheets hub has fresh arithmetic, fractions, word problems and geometry on every click, plus a 60-second mental-math sprint — or go straight to addition, subtraction, multiplication and fractions.
