Worksheets in Preschool 

The word, “worksheet” can bring up strong feelings for both teachers and parents. Let’s talk about worksheets. 

Should preschoolers be doing worksheets? 

Worksheets are not the best way for kids to learn, especially preschoolers. Young children are very concrete learners and need to have hands-on learning experiences to master concepts. However, there are many important skills that students need to learn that can be supported with worksheets such as holding a crayon to color, line tracing, cutting, and more! 

I am a strong advocate that children learn best through play. I do not think printable worksheets ever replace play. But, I am a teacher and parent myself and I understand that ready-to-print worksheets and workbooks are very helpful especially if they are focused on skills preschoolers need. 

These worksheets are not intended to exclusively teach your students. Instead, they are intended to serve as a support for the amazing hands-on instruction you are already providing to your students.  

If you don’t want to use these worksheets as worksheets, that’s totally fine!  Some additional ideas are provided for using them with your students. I also recommend adding manipulatives and supports too! 

Number Recognition Worksheet

This number recognition worksheet is a great way to help your preschooler learn their numbers. The worksheet includes numbers 1-10, with a fun and colorful design that will keep your child engaged. They can practice tracing each number and then try writing it on their own. This worksheet is a great way to start building a strong foundation for math skills.

Inside this free download, Preschool Worksheets you will find a few worksheets for preschoolers that are focused on numbers. 

Color by Number Worksheets for Preschool

I love Color By Number worksheets because they focus on visual discrimination. You can read more about this skill in this post, Why You Should Be Teaching Visual Discrimination. Students will simply look at the picture and color each section by number. 

This worksheet focuses on numbers 1-7.

Cutting and pasting are both essential skills for preschoolers.

Line tracing is a wonderful activity for students who aren’t yet ready to write. I recommend using skinny markers with this activity since they feel similar to a pencil and have less drag.

These worksheets can also be printed on colored paper and turned and laminated and used with dry-erase markers. I recommend using the skinny dry-erase markers too since they feel most like a pencil. 

In fact, I actually recommend using skinny markers over pencils with beginning writers because they have less drag than a pencil and little ones don’t have to stress about the lead breaking! 

Pattern Worksheets

This patterns worksheet is a great way to introduce your preschooler to the concept of patterns. The worksheet includes a series of shapes in different colors and sizes.

Children can practice identifying and completing the patterns by coloring in the missing shapes. This worksheet is not only fun, but it also helps your child develop their cognitive skills and prepares them for more advanced math concepts in the future.
