Geography and Regions Vocabulary Worksheets for 5th Grade

What your child practices

Here, 4 worksheets help 5th grade students (Grade 5 in Canada) learn and use Geography and Regions, with 32 questions in all. Vocabulary is one of the strongest predictors of reading success in upper elementary, and topic word lists help children understand what they read in science and social studies. The set includes Match the Meaning, Fill in the Sentence, Synonyms and Antonyms and Which Word Fits. Each sheet supports Common Core L.5.4, covering working out the meaning of unknown words. It also touches L.5.6, learning and using new grade level words. Every PDF prints on US letter paper, with the answer key on page 2 for quick checking. After printing, the online version gives instant feedback and reads each question aloud.

Tips for parents

• Ask for a synonym and an antonym for each new word to deepen understanding.
• Have your child write one sentence of their own for each new word.
• Pick three words from the Geography and Regions list and use them in conversation during the week.
