First, Next, Last Worksheets for Kindergarten

What your child practices

Practice First, Next, Last with 6 worksheets for kindergarten, 57 questions in all. Young learners pick up language rules by seeing many short examples, so each page keeps the directions simple and the examples close to everyday speech. It opens with a guided Learn and Practice page, moves on to a practice sheet and a review test, then finishes with two quick quizzes and a mixed review. The skill matches Common Core RL.K.2, the standard for retelling a story and finding its central message. It also touches RL.K.3, describing characters, settings and major events in a story. In Canada it matches the BC curriculum for Kindergarten. Answer keys sit on page 2 of each PDF, so checking takes seconds. New to the idea? Watch the First, Next, Last video lesson, then print a sheet while it is fresh.

Tips for parents

• Read each direction aloud. At this age the skill matters more than reading the instructions.
• Turn a mistake into a mini lesson: fix it together and write one new example.
• Have your child find one example of First, Next, Last in a book you are already reading together.
