This free printable draw-and-write worksheet gives kindergarten and first grade children a social scene they can interpret and expand with their own ideas. Children first follow the prompt to draw friends waving goodbye, deciding who is in the picture, where they are, and what the surrounding scene looks like. They then complete “They are…” with a sentence ending that describes what is happening or adds another detail to their illustration.
Children might write that the friends are saying goodbye, going home, leaving school, waving to each other, or feeling a certain way about leaving. Thinking about what might be happening before or after the pictured moment can also introduce simple inference and storytelling skills. This free kindergarten and first grade writing worksheet provides practice with sentence construction, action and feeling words, handwriting, and adding meaning to an illustrated scene.
