On this Grade 2 worksheet, students focus on inferring setting, meaning where a story takes place. They read short passages and decide if the story is at home, at the zoo, in the woods, or somewhere else. Nine fill-in blanks and one matching activity give Grade 2 learners lots of practice spotting setting clues like animals, furniture, weather, and sounds. Every answer has a hint and a why to explain the thinking.
