Garbage Can

Worksheet Description

This worksheet displays a large image of an empty trash can at the top and several smaller images of trash items below, all enclosed within dashed lines suggesting they are to be cut out. The directive provided is for students to paste the pieces of trash inside the trash can image, indicating a cut-and-paste activity. The layout of the worksheet is simple and clear, designed to focus the student’s attention on the task of placing the trash items correctly within the outlined area of the trash can.

The purpose of this worksheet is to teach students the concept of ‘inside’ by having them physically move images of trash into the trash can. This exercise not only reinforces the spatial concept of placing objects inside a container but also serves as a practical lesson on proper waste disposal. The cutting and pasting aspect of the activity is intended to develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. Additionally, the worksheet provides an opportunity for children to engage in an interactive and tactile learning experience.
