Personal Hygiene Habits Reading Practice for Grade 3
A short fill-in-the-blank reading packet based on a rap-style passage about personal hygiene routines, including handwashing, brushing teeth, flossing, and bathing. Third graders build vocabulary, reading comprehension, and context-clue skills as they use a word bank to complete each blank, making it a good fit for a 20-30 minute reading block or small-group work.

Teacher Guide & Tips
- Use this as a warm-up or small-group activity during a health or reading block, reading the passage aloud once before students fill in the blanks.
- Discussion question: Why do we wash our hands after using the bathroom and before we eat? What might happen if we skipped it?
- Scaffold for struggling readers: Read the passage together, pausing at each blank to discuss which word from the word bank makes the most sense in the sentence, and point out the clue words around each blank.
- Extension for advanced students: Ask them to write two or three sentences of their own describing their daily hygiene routine, using at least two words from the word bank.
- Estimated time: about 20-30 minutes including reading, completing the blanks, and a brief class discussion.
