Learning Objective

Name five places in a community from a picture, and pick out the picture in a row that is not a place at all.

Lesson Overview

About this worksheet

A community is a small idea made of concrete parts, and the parts are buildings a child has already walked past. This sheet names five of them — school, library, hospital, post office, fire station — from the picture alone, with a word bank on the page.

Section B changes the question rather than repeating it. Each row holds three places and one thing that is not a place, and a child circles the odd one out. Deciding that a cow is not somewhere you can go is a different piece of thinking from naming a building.

The answer key on page three names each building and names the picture that does not belong in every row.

How to Use This Lesson

Print the worksheet. The word bank is in the box on page one.

Read the five place names aloud together before students begin.

Name the places near your own school as a class first.
