About this resource
Description
Noticing how things are alike and how they are different is one of the first steps in comparing and contrasting. This same different objects worksheet helps first graders look closely at everyday objects and spot the one detail that changes, such as its color, its size, or the way it faces.
About This Worksheet
In the first part, students look at five rows of pictures. Each row shows the same object four times, but one copy is not like the others. Children circle the object that is different. In the second part, students look at a crayon and a pencil and write one way they are the same and one way they are different. This 1st grade compare and contrast worksheet moves kids from simple looking to putting their thinking into words.
What’s Included
- Five rows of object pictures to compare
- A crayon and pencil compare and contrast task
- Same and different writing lines
- An answer key with sample answers
Why It Helps Kids
First, it sharpens visual attention, because children must check color, size, and direction before they choose. Second, it builds the language of comparing, since kids explain what is the same and what is different. Third, it prepares young readers to compare characters, settings, and stories later on.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before starting the same different objects worksheet, hold up two real objects, like a spoon and a fork, and ask children to name what is alike and what is not. After the sheet, have students find two classroom objects and tell a partner one way they match and one way they differ. For extra fun, let children draw their own row where one picture is a little different, then trade with a friend to solve.
