About this worksheet

A community needs many workers, and each one does a job that helps other people. A nurse takes care of sick people at a hospital, a teacher helps children learn at a school, and a librarian helps people find books at a library. A farmer grows food on a farm, a baker bakes bread at a bakery, and a firefighter keeps people safe from fires at the fire station.

People are paid for their work, and the money lets them buy what their family needs. Knowing where people work also helps a child know where to go for help. This worksheet shows eight workers, and the child writes the place where each one works, choosing from the word box. Ask your child to name a worker they know and tell where that person works.

What your child will learn

  • Name jobs that help a community
  • Say where a worker does the job
  • Tell how workers help other people

C3 Framework standard: D2.Eco.5.K-2
