About this worksheet
Five colorful pictures cut down the middle: a ladybug, an owl, a present, a strawberry and a butterfly. Kids look at colors and shapes along the cut edge to find which right half finishes each left half, a good warm-up for symmetry. The answer key is on page 2. It is made for pre-K and preschool, roughly ages 4 to 5, with big pictures and one number per page.
Tips for using it
- Start with the pre-K pages where the different picture is a different thing, then move to the small differences.
- Ask why after every answer; naming the difference (color, size, way it faces) builds vocabulary.
- Cover all rows but one with a sheet of paper so younger kids focus on a single row.
- On the details page, count out loud and touch each spot or petal; the different one has one more or one less.
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.
