Five riddles with three clues each. Circle the picture that matches all the clues. Matches L.1.5b.
What kids practice
Describing means telling about something with details: what it looks like, what it does, where you find it and what group it belongs to. Kids who can describe well are easier to understand, tell better stories and do better with reading and writing. These sheets give them a simple checklist of things to talk about. Grouping words by category and key traits matches L.1.5b.
Watch for
- Saying just one word, like "red." Ask "What else can you tell me?"
- Only describing how something looks. Ask what it does and where you find it.
- Guessing a riddle after the first clue. Wait for all the clues, then decide.
It's free to print, with an answer key. See the full describing objects guide for 1st grade.
