Read and Circle: Matching Sentences to Pictures Worksheet
Children ages 4-5 build reading comprehension by reading a short, simple sentence and then identifying which of several pictures actually matches its meaning, rather than just decoding words in isolation. This step — connecting written language back to a real scene — is what separates true reading comprehension from mechanical word-calling, making it an important milestone activity for early readers.

How to use this worksheet
Read each sentence aloud together slowly, pointing to each word as you say it. Ask your child what the sentence is describing before looking at the picture choices, encouraging them to picture the scene in their mind first. Have your child circle the picture that matches the sentence, then reread the sentence once more while pointing at their chosen picture to confirm it makes sense.
