Winter Holiday Counting & Tracing — Answer Key
Part A: Trace the Words
Trace each word carefully by following the dotted lines.
1. frost
2. snow
3. cold
4. sled
5. ice
6. hat
Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. In winter we wear a warm coat.
The word "pair" always means two of something that match. You wear one mitten on each hand, so a pair is 2 mittens.
2. There are 2 mittens in a pair.
A classic snowman is built from a big snowball on the bottom, a medium one in the middle, and a smaller head on top. That makes 3 snowy sections stacked up.
3. A snowman has a carrot for a nose.
The four seasons go in order: spring, summer, fall, then winter. Leaves drop in fall, and then the cold winter weather arrives.
4. We drink hot cocoa when it is cold.
A scarf is a long piece of soft cloth you wrap around your neck. It blocks the cold wind from reaching your skin.
Part C: True or False?
Read each statement. Circle True or False.
1. Snow is warm.
True False
Snow is made of frozen water, and anything frozen feels cold when you touch it. That is why your fingers get chilly in the snow.
2. You can build a snowman in winter.
True False
Snowmen need packed snow because snow sticks together when it is cold and wet. Sand is dry and falls apart, so you can build sandcastles but not snowmen with it.
3. Ice is very hot.
True False
In winter the sun rises later and sets earlier, so there are fewer hours of daylight. Summer days feel long because the sun stays up much later.
