About this worksheet

This page turns body-part words into something a preschooler can act out. Each question shows one familiar object and asks which part of the body does the job: the part a sock goes on, the part that holds a crayon, the part a hat goes on, the part that eats an apple. Your child answers by pointing to a picture, so nothing has to be read. After every answer, ask them to find the same part on their own body and move it, because a body-part word is learned through the body and not through the page.

The ready sheet says where the object goes, the practice sheet asks which part does the job, and the stretch sheet shows no picture at all and asks which part you use to kick, clap, chew or hear, so the child has to name the part from the job alone. Sing a head, shoulders, knees and toes song afterwards and watch which parts your child touches first.

What your child will learn

  • Point to the body part that does a familiar job
  • Match clothing and tools to the part of the body they belong to
  • Tell the foot, hand, head, mouth, ear and nose apart
  • Name and move the same part on your own body

Head Start ELOF standard: P-SCI 1, 1-LS1-1

Worked example

The page shows one sock. You ask where a sock goes. It goes on the foot, so your child points to the foot and then puts a hand on their own foot.

Common mistake

Pointing to the part that is nearest in the picture instead of thinking about the job, such as the hand for a sock because hands also put socks on.

Helpful hint

Act the job out first, then look at your own body and see which part moved.
