About this worksheet
A big glass jar holds ten colored circles, and each circle asks for one thing about the child: a word that describes me, my favorite food, a place I love, something I am good at, my favorite book, what makes me laugh, a person I admire, a dream, a favorite thing to do and something I want to learn. Kids write a word or draw a tiny picture in each, add their name on the jar label and color it. Third graders can write a few sentences per box and share the page with the class.
Tips for using it
- Model it first: fill in a copy about yourself on the board or under the document camera, then hand out the sheets.
- For pre-K and kindergarten, read each prompt aloud and let children answer with a drawing; write their words under the drawing for them if they ask.
- Date every page and file it. A September page next to a June page shows growth in drawing and handwriting better than any report card.
- Print the pennant and the poster on card stock so they survive a few weeks on the wall.
Printing tips
Download the PDF and print at 100% (or “fit to page” on A4). It is a vector file, so the lines stay sharp on any printer. This page is free for personal, family and classroom use.
