In this fiction comprehension exercise, your students will use transition words to help them write about the problem and solution in three short stories.

Children will use six question words — who, what, when, where, why, and how — to identify the problem and solution in a short passage.

Use this resource to organize the different ways a character tries to solve a problem in a fiction text.

Encourage critical thinking and support literacy development by asking questions as students read the final chapters of The Great Fire.
