About this worksheet
One page, two columns: children fill in the left half at the beginning of the year and the right half at the end, so the self-portrait, the name in best handwriting, age, height, favorite food, best friend and something I can do sit side by side. Parents and teachers love seeing how much the drawing and the handwriting changed. Black and white; store it in the portfolio between the two dates. First graders, about ages 6 to 7, can fill it in alone with one short sentence per box.
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.
