:"Read with sufficient accuracy and fluency to support comprehension."
Our Take: While reading at an appropriate pace, fifth graders should be able to extract the meaning of a text and accurately answer specific “who, what, where, why, and how” questions. Fifth graders typically fine-tune these skills through reading comprehension and reader’s workshop activities.
These worksheets can help students practice this Common Core State Standards skill.
