About this worksheet
Twelve picture cards with a body part word to finish: e_e, n_se, f__t, mo_th, t__th, th_mb, h_ir and more. Children say the picture name, listen for the middle sound and write the missing vowel (or vowel team) in the box. Words and boxes use the handwriting letters from our phonics pages; the answer key fills every box in red. First graders, about ages 6 to 7, can read the words and write them on their own.
Tips for using it
- Before any worksheet, play "touch your...": call out a body part and have kids touch it on themselves. The labels stick much faster after the body has done it.
- On the labeling pages, read the word bank aloud together first and cross each word out once it is used.
- For the cut and paste page, cut the word cards first and lay them on the table; younger kids can glue them while you read.
- Pair the measuring page with real objects: connecting cubes, paper clips or LEGO bricks all work as units.
Printing tips
Download the PDF and print at 100% (or “fit to page” on A4). Page 1 is the worksheet and page 2 is the answer key with the answers in red; print just page 1 if you want to keep the answers for checking. Free for personal, family and classroom use.
