About this worksheet
Fourteen label boxes and no word bank: second graders recall and spell eyebrow, eye, ear, cheek, chin, neck, shoulder, chest, elbow, wrist, thumb, fingers, knee and ankle on their own. A bonus line asks for three more body parts on the back. Use it as a quick science check after a body unit; the key is on page 2. Second graders use it to spell body words without help and to start looking at what is inside the body.
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.
