About this resource
Numu is described through things the creature does not have or do. Read the repeated no and not statements carefully before answering the five questions: pupils must remember absence as well as presence. Revisit the relevant sentence before selecting a multiple-choice or yes-or-no answer.
Curriculum reference — England: Literal absence questions assess understanding of text; no inference claim. The supplied literal-detail questions fit comprehension of short simple texts; no inference claim is made. Selected skills only; reference stage is not an overall reading age, complete curriculum coverage, or an automatic recommendation for every learner.
