Description
How to Teach About Police Officers
This police officers writing worksheet helps 1st grade students think about one of the most familiar community helpers in their town. Police officers keep people safe, help lost children find their families, direct traffic, and teach kids how to stay safe on the street. When children draw and write about the police, they practice social studies thinking and early writing skills at the same time.
About This Worksheet
The sheet is titled The Police Station. Students first draw a picture of the police at work in the large My Picture box. Then they use the five writing lines in the My Writing box to tell how the police help us. Read the directions aloud together, talk about what police officers do, and let each child choose a scene to draw before they begin to write. Because every drawing and sentence is the child’s own, the sheet is a single open-ended page.
What’s Included:
- A Name and Date line at the top of the page
- One short, grade-level direction line
- A large drawing area for a picture of the police at work
- Five roomy writing lines sized for 1st grade handwriting
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
First, drawing before writing gives young writers a plan, so their sentences have a clear topic. Second, the task builds community awareness, since children learn that police officers are helpers they can trust. Third, the open format lets every student write at their own level, from one simple sentence to a short paragraph about a busy day at the police station.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Use this community helpers writing page after reading a book about police officers or after a visit from a local officer. Brainstorm a short list of police words on the board, such as help, safe, car, badge and traffic, so children can spell them on their own. Afterwards, collect the pages into a class book about our town, or pair the police officers writing worksheet with other community helper lessons.
