This easy worksheet helps second graders meet the community helpers who keep us healthy and safe. Part A asks students to sort six helpers—paramedic, lifeguard, pharmacist, firefighter, dentist, and police officer—into Keeps Us Healthy or Keeps Us Safe. Part B includes five fill-in-the-blank sentences about paramedics riding ambulances, lifeguards watching pools, pharmacists handing out medicine, park rangers protecting parks, and coaches teaching sports.
Part C finishes with four true-or-false statements that reinforce each helper's role. The worksheet strengthens classification thinking and helps children recognize the trusted adults who care for their community.
