About these father's day worksheets

These Father's Day worksheets mix a gift to make with real skill practice. Preschoolers color a fold-up card, draw for an All About My Dad page while a grown-up writes their words, count, trace paths, dot a polka dot tie, compare big and small and play I spy. Kindergartners write inside a card, finish an All About My Dad page, write about a favorite thing to do together, count, add with pictures, trace words and color by sight word. 1st graders write a letter, fill in an All About My Dad questionnaire, read a story about fixing a bike, solve word problems, find 10 more and 10 less, run a class survey and fill in a June calendar.

Every card, All About page and letter also comes in a someone special version for a grandpa, uncle, mom, foster parent or any grown-up who cares for the child. The pictures go beyond tools too: fishing, reading, ball games, bikes and pancakes.

Every page is black and white, prints on US Letter or A4, and pages with one right answer have an answer key on page 2.

How to use them

  1. Make the card first. Fold it, color the front, then draw and write inside.
  2. Let each child choose the Dad or the someone special version. No one needs to explain why.
  3. Father's Day is the third Sunday in June, often after school ends. Send the cards home in the last week of school with a note to keep them for the day.
  4. Use the 1st grade class survey as a quick, friendly data lesson: ask, tally, then graph.

Teaching tips

  • Preschool: write the child's words exactly as they say them on the All About page.
  • Kindergarten: a word bank on the board (read, cook, play, fish, ride, build) helps with the writing prompt.
  • 1st grade: on 10 more and 10 less, only the tens digit changes. Point to it each time.
  • Fold the cards on a hard surface and run a thumbnail along each fold for crisp edges.

Questions teachers and parents ask

When is Father's Day?

The third Sunday in June in the United States. In many places school is out by then, so make the cards in the last week of school.

What if a child does not have a dad at home?

Every card, All About page and letter comes in a someone special version, so children can make a gift for any grown-up who cares for them.

How do I fold the cards?

Fold the top half back behind the bottom half, then fold the left half behind the right. The cover is on the front and the inside opens like a book. The folding steps are printed on the page.

Is there an answer key?

Yes, for the math, word search, story and big and small pages. Cards, All About pages, letters and the class survey have no one right answer.
