About This Reader
“Maria’s Music Class” engages Grade 3 learners in making inferences aligned to CCSS RL.3.1. Students read a short narrative about Maria arriving to find classmates already tuning, then use textual clues (cheeks turning red, quick setup) to infer she feels late or embarrassed. The resource blends direct comprehension questions with inference-based multiple choice questions that emphasize citing evidence. Audio integrated narration supports access and fluency, while the interactive format increases engagement and provides immediate feedback. It is easily assessable and perfect for quick checks, small-group lessons, or independent practice. Assign seamlessly through your LMS for in-class or remote learning. Use this to teach how character actions and physical cues reveal feelings and to strengthen standards-based reasoning.
