A cover and 7 pages of cards to cut out. Six pages hold 24 picture cards, each with a job name, including a police officer, firefighter, doctor, nurse, teacher, mail carrier, librarian, veterinarian, chef, farmer, crossing guard, paramedic, bus driver, judge, lifeguard and gardener.

Can I use the Community Helpers Flash Cards at home and in the classroom?

⌄

Yes. We made it for Kindergarten 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.

Which resources have an answer key?

The cause and effect cards, the hidden objects and I Spy pages and the Who Can Help? problem solving cards have an answer key. The rest are games, crafts, posters and templates.

Is there one download with many of these resources?

⌄

Yes. The Community Helpers Activity Pack gathers 15 Kindergarten to 2nd grade resources, from the job match and word search to flash cards, a wheel craft and posters, in one PDF.
