The Shared Umbrella

When the rain began after school, Noor noticed that Eli had no umbrella. Noor offered to walk with him under hers, even though it meant taking the longer path. The two arrived home a little late but laughing. The next week, Eli brought an extra umbrella and offered it to another student caught in the rain.

01 Which theme best fits the passage?
02 Which action shows Noor’s kindness?
03 How does Eli respond to Noor’s example later?
04 Why is the theme more than a detail?
05 Which detail supports the theme?
06 What does the passage suggest about helpful actions?
