Community Helpers Activity Booklet

Use it in a community helpers unit, at a center, with a small group or as a take-home page. Children name common community helpers and the jobs they do, match helpers to the tools, places and vehicles they use at work and write about how a community helper helps them.

A cover and 11 pages. Children label 12 helpers from a word bank, draw a favorite helper and finish three sentences, match helpers to tools, workplaces and vehicles, and count four kinds of helper hats. Other pages fill in six job sentences, tell how six school helpers help, circle who can help with six everyday problems, write a thank-you note and color four helpers. The directions on the page read: Use the word bank to label each community helper.

Yes. We made it for 1st Grade to 2nd Grade community helpers, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.

Each script has parts for several readers. Children practice their lines, then read the script aloud together, which builds fluency and expression.
