The second medium sheet uses a short passage about cats so kindergartners practice the same skill with new content. Nine fill-in-the-blank questions guide them to name cats as clean animals and add details about washing themselves and sleeping a lot. A matching activity then links sentences like 'The sun is bright' to the detail 'It lights up the sky,' showing how supporting facts always connect back to a main idea.
