Preschool Grammar Worksheet - Building Confidence
Circle the picture.
The sun is hot. Circle the one that is the opposite: cold.
The moon means night. Circle the one that means the opposite: day.
A wooden block is hard. Circle the opposite: soft.
A feather is light. Circle the one that is the opposite: heavy.
A rabbit is fast. Circle the one that is the opposite: slow.
A stone is heavy. Circle the one that is the opposite: light.
Opposites are the first word relationship most children notice, because the two ends of an idea explain each other: big means more when little is standing next to it. This page shows one picture, says the word that describes it, and asks for the opposite among three or four other pictures. Every distractor is a real, sensible thing, and on the middle level one of them is deliberately merely different rather than opposite — an elephant is not the opposite of heavy, it is another heavy thing — because telling different from opposite is the whole point.
The last level takes the picture away. The grown-up says only a word, such as hot, and three of the four pictures are hot things; the one that is not is the opposite. A child who simply reaches for the first picture that goes with the word will be wrong, and that is useful to see.

The picture is a stone and the word is heavy. An elephant, a bus and a tree are all heavy too, so none of them is the opposite. A feather is, so the finger goes there.
Choosing a picture that is different in some way instead of the one that is the other end of the same idea.
Say both words together — hot, cold — so the pair sounds like one thing.
