Print this page then count the fruit in each column. For example, put your finger on the red apple, then move it up to count how many red squares have been colored in. There are two squares colored in, so on the right of the page, outside the chart, write the number 2 on the line beside the apple. This preschool worksheet was first made to go with the book Me and the World: An Infographic Exploration, written by Mirela Trius and illustrated by Joana Casals. It aims to teach the basics of how to make a chart and how to read a chart. At first children might count the squares, which adds a fun adding component. It’s also a good way to introduce the basics of charts/graphs, like: the horizontal axis, which is usually called the x-axis. The vertical axis, which is usually called the y-axis and to teach preschoolers how to slide a fingers toward the y-axis to more quickly find the answer.
While this preschool worksheet on measurements was made with Me and the World: An Infographic Exploration specifically in mind. This measurements worksheet can be used anytime you’re looking for how to teach children to measure things.
