About this resource
Description
Living things grow, need food and water, and make more of their own kind. This circle living things worksheet helps first graders sort the real living things from objects that only look alive, like a teddy bear, a toy robot, or a floating balloon. It is a simple, hands-on way to build a strong science foundation.
About This Worksheet
Students look at three rows of colorful pictures. In each row, they circle the one picture that shows a living thing, such as a sunflower, a turtle, or a bird. In the second part, children read four short words and circle the words that name living things. This 1st grade living and non-living things worksheet works well for morning work, science centers, homework, or a quick check after a lesson.
What’s Included
- One printable worksheet page with nine picture choices in three rows
- A word section where students read and circle living things
- An answer key for fast, easy grading
Why It Helps Kids
First, the tricky choices make children think about what living things really do, not just what they look like. Second, the word section connects science to early reading, because students must read each word before deciding. Third, circling is quick and low-stress, so every child can show what they know and feel successful.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before starting the circle living things worksheet, take a short walk and ask children to point out things that grow, eat, and breathe. After the worksheet, have students draw one more living thing and one non-living thing on the back. You can also ask them to explain why the teddy bear is not alive even though it looks like an animal. Pair the page with the resources below for more practice.
