This medium worksheet sorts community helpers into goods workers and services workers using a simple two-box chart. First graders place a baker, farmer, and toymaker in the 'makes things' column, and a doctor, teacher, and police officer in the 'helps people' column. Picture cues support the short labels.
The sorting task introduces early economics vocabulary that Grade 2 social studies will build on next year.
