Heat Energy Matching Worksheet for Preschoolers

How to use this worksheet

Look at the objects on the left side of the page together and talk about which ones produce or relate to heat. Ask your child to draw a line matching each object to the picture that represents heat energy on the right. Once matching is complete, move to the word search and help your child scan the letter grid to find heat-related words. Circle or highlight each word your child finds, reading it aloud together.
