Community Helpers — Answer Key
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. A person who provides goods makes or sells things.
Goods are physical items you can hold, like bread, shoes, or toys. A baker who bakes bread or a shopkeeper who sells toys is providing things people want to buy.
2. A person who provides services does helpful work for others.
Services are helpful actions rather than objects. A teacher teaching a lesson or a doctor checking a patient is doing helpful work for others instead of selling something physical.
3. A firefighter works at a fire station.
Firefighters keep their trucks, hoses, and gear at a fire station so they can quickly respond when someone calls for help. The station is their home base in the community.
4. A teacher works in a school and helps students learn.
School is the place where students gather to study reading, math, and other subjects. A teacher leads lessons there to help students learn new things every day.
5. A doctor works at a hospital or a clinic.
Doctors treat sick and injured people in a hospital or clinic, where the medical tools, beds, and other staff they need are all in one place.
6. A baker works in a bakery where bread is made.
Bread, cakes, and pastries are baked fresh in a bakery, which has the big ovens and mixing bowls a baker needs to do the job.
7. A farmer works on a farm and grows crops and raises animals.
Farmers grow plants like corn and wheat for food, and they also raise animals such as cows, chickens, and pigs that give us milk, eggs, and meat.
8. A librarian works in a library filled with books.
A library is a quiet building full of books that people can borrow and read. The librarian works there to help visitors find the right book and check it out.
9. A sanitation worker keeps our streets clean.
Sanitation workers pick up trash and sweep up litter so that streets stay clean. Clean streets keep the neighborhood healthy and pleasant for everyone.
