Draw it

Ask does it grow, does it eat? for each picture before the child answers. A grown-up reads the directions aloud, and the child circles, sorts, colors or draws.

"Draw it" (living and nonliving) is a drawing page with 2 framed boxes, each with a small picture at the top. In box 1, the child draws a living thing. In box 2, the child draws a nonliving thing. It practices telling living things from nonliving things. There is no answer key, since every drawing is right.

Yes, both. We made it for Preschool living things, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with living and nonliving. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.

14 printable worksheets, all free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.

These are written for preschool children, roughly ages 3-5. Start with the first few pages, use the free preview to judge the fit, and come back to harder ones as your child gets steadier.

No. Most pages ask children to circle, trace, match, color, or cut and paste, and a few ask for a single number. A grown-up can read the instructions aloud, so children do not need to read yet.
