Common Core Standards
Grade 2
Reading RI.2.1
Ask and answer such questions as who, what, where, when, why, and how to demonstrate understanding of key details in a text.
This standard is no different from its Reading: Literature counterpart (wow, those Common Core people were pretty lazy, weren't they?), so go on over there to check out what we have to say about this one. Just don't forget that we're talking about non-story stuff as opposed to, well, story stuff.
