Description
Our Drawing Light Objects Worksheet helps 2nd grade students name the things that give us light and think about how each one works. Light comes from many places. Some light comes from nature, like the sun and a firefly, and some comes from things people make, like a lamp or a traffic light. This drawing light objects worksheet asks children to read short clues, figure out which light source each clue describes, draw it, and decide whether it needs electricity to work.
The page has six clue cards. In each card, students read a two-line clue with one key word underlined, draw the matching light source in the dashed drawing box, and circle yes or no to show whether that object uses electricity. Children can work on their own or with a partner, then share their drawings and explain their thinking. This light sources worksheet is a great fit for a science center, an energy unit, or a quick check after a lesson about light.
What’s Included
- One page with six clue cards about things that give us light
- A drawing box in every card for the student’s picture
- A yes or no choice for each object: does it need electricity?
- An answer key with the correct choices and a note on what each drawing shows
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids Learn
First, reading a clue and naming the object builds reading comprehension and science vocabulary at the same time. Second, drawing the light source helps children remember it, because they have to picture the real object before they draw it. Third, sorting objects by whether they need electricity pushes students to compare natural light and man-made light, which is a key idea in early physical science.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before the worksheet, turn off the classroom lights and ask students what else could help them see. After the worksheet, go on a light hunt around the room or home and make a class chart of light sources that do and do not need electricity. Students can also add one more light source of their own to the list and write a clue for a partner to solve.
