This question tests CCSS.RI.1.10: reading informational texts appropriately complex for grade 1 with prompting and support. Students must comprehend grade-level informational text by finding key details. This text is appropriately complex for 1st grade: it has a concrete topic on plants, clear structure with 6 sentences, sentence length 6-12 words, some content vocabulary like roots and leaves, and familiar concepts. The text describes plant parts and needs. Finding this detail requires locating specific information about roots. Choice B is correct because the text explicitly states 'Roots take in water from soil.' Choice A is incorrect because it describes bird wings, not roots; students choosing this may have misread or confused plant parts with animals. SUPPORT for grade-level reading: Before reading, preview topic and picture, introduce content vocabulary like roots, stem, and leaves, activate prior knowledge. During reading: Read aloud with students, point to relevant pictures, reread sections as needed, ask 'What is this about?' and 'What does it tell us?' After reading: Discuss key ideas, retell in own words, connect to prior knowledge. For this question: reread relevant sentence together. Watch for: Students who need picture support, students who decode words but don't comprehend meaning, students who use prior knowledge without checking text, students who lose track of main idea. 1st grade texts should challenge students to grow but be accessible with teacher support.
