Winter Holiday Counting & Tracing — Answer Key
Part A: Trace the Words
Trace each word carefully by following the dotted lines.
1. mitten
2. scarf
3. chill
4. flake
5. wind
6. boot
Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. A snowflake has 6 sides.
A scarf wraps snugly around your neck to trap warmth and keep chilly wind from sneaking under your coat.
2. Hot cocoa is a warm winter drink.
When water freezes into a snowflake, it always makes a shape with six arms or sides — that's how ice forms.
3. Ice is frozen water.
Winter has less sunlight each day and the air temperature drops, so the short days feel cold outside.
4. You put gloves on your hands when it is cold.
A sleigh is a big sled with runners that slides over snow; in stories, reindeer pull Santa's sleigh through the sky.
Part C: True or False?
Read each statement. Circle True or False.
1. Ice cream melts in the cold.
True False
True — the four seasons go in order: spring, summer, fall, then winter, so winter always follows fall.
2. Birds fly south in winter.
True False
False — birds fly south when it gets too cold, not too hot, so they can find warmer weather and food.
3. Sleds go downhill on snow.
True False
True — mittens trap warm air around all your fingers together, which helps your hands stay cozy in the cold.
