4 Learn About Understanding Main Idea and Details Main Idea and Details The main idea is the most important idea in a story or passage. The main idea tells what the story or passage is mostly about. Most stories or passages have a title. The title can tell something about the main idea. Every paragraph also has a main idea. Details are pieces of information. They tell about the main idea. Details explain the main idea. They tell who, what, where, or why. Details can tell about a person. They can tell about a place. They can tell about a thing. Details can tell the order in which things happen. Details can also explain how to do something. Read this passage. Think about what the passage is mostly about. This is the main idea. Think about what the details tell about the main idea. House plants need three things. They need water. Some plants need a lot of water. Others need very little. They also need light. Some need a lot. Others don t need much. Plants also need food. You can buy plant food in the store. Read about your plants. Know how much water, light, and food each kind of plant needs. You will have beautiful plants for a long time. Taking Care of Plants 2
5 Main Idea House plants need three things. Detail They need light. Detail They need water. Detail They need food. The main idea of the passage is that house plants need three things.
