About these all about me worksheets worksheets

These All About Me worksheets help kindergartners write about the topic they know best: themselves. Each page has a big box to draw in, a dotted sentence starter to trace, and kindergarten-size lines to finish the sentence, such as 'My name is', 'My family has' and 'When I grow up I want to be'.

Use them in the first weeks of school to get to know your class and see where each child is with drawing, letters and sounds. Save the My First Day page and pair it with My Kindergarten Year in the spring for a simple before-and-after keepsake. The pages are black and white, so children can color them however they like, and they print on US Letter or A4.

Standards

  • CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.K.3Use a combination of drawing, dictating, and writing to narrate a single event or several loosely linked events, tell about the events in the order in which they occurred, and provide a reaction to what happened.
  • CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.K.8With guidance and support from adults, recall information from experiences or gather information from provided sources to answer a question.

How to use them

  1. Start with All About Me or My Name in the first week. Talk about the prompt and let children tell their answers out loud before they write.
  2. Have children draw first, then trace the starter and finish each sentence. Write their words for them if they are not ready to write alone.
  3. Collect one page from each child to learn names, families and interests, and to note who can write their name and letters.
  4. Do My First Day at the start of the year and My Kindergarten Year at the end. Staple them together to show growth.

Teaching tips

  • Keep family prompts open. 'Draw the people you live with' works for every kind of family.
  • Children who write their name in all capitals can trace the starter as a model for a capital first letter and lowercase letters after it.
  • Accept sounded-out spelling: the goal is getting their own ideas onto the page.
  • Display finished pages at child height so classmates can 'read' each other's pictures and words.

Questions teachers and parents ask

When should I use All About Me worksheets?

In the first weeks of school, as a get-to-know-you activity, and again at the end of the year to see how much a child's drawing and writing have grown.

What if a child can't write yet?

Let them draw and tell you their answers, then write the words for them. Tracing the dotted starter is a good first writing step.

Are these only for kindergarten?

They are sized for kindergarten, with large lines and short starters, and also suit preschoolers working with an adult and first graders at the start of the year.
