Opposites — Answer Key
Part A: Trace the Words
Trace each word carefully by following the dotted lines.
1. light
2. heavy
3. soft
4. hard
5. near
6. far
Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. A pillow feels soft.
Pillows are filled with fluffy stuff so they feel soft, not hard.
2. A rock feels hard.
Rocks do not bend or squish, so they feel hard when you touch them.
3. A feather is very light.
Feathers weigh almost nothing, so we say they are light to lift.
4. An elephant is very heavy.
Elephants weigh a lot, so we call them heavy because they are huge.
Part C: True or False?
Read each statement. Circle True or False.
1. A balloon is heavy.
True False
Balloons float up because they are very light, not heavy at all.
2. Cotton is soft.
True False
Cotton feels fluffy and gentle, so soft is the correct word for it.
3. The moon is near to Earth.
True False
The moon looks small because it is very far from Earth, not near.
