This medium Grade 1 worksheet asks first graders to sort everyday items like broccoli, bikes, blankets, and video games into needs or wants at home. Nine fill-in-the-blank sentences and a four-item matching activity push first graders to label each item and explain their reasons carefully. Right-column labels include need for health, want for fun, need for safety, and want for play.
