Winter Vocabulary Worksheet for 2nd - 4th Grade | Lesson Planet - Free Printable

It looks like you've uploaded an image of a worksheet titled "Winter Vocabulary", which is a matching exercise. The task asks you to match the words in column A with their definitions in column B.

Here’s how to solve it:

---

🔹 Step-by-Step Solution

We’ll go through each word in Column A and match it with the correct definition in Column B.

---

#### Column A (Words):
1. snow
2. Day
3. gloves
4. snowballs
5. December
6. January
7. sled
8. slip
9. boots
10. ice
11. coat
12. cold
13. freezing
14. icicles
15. earmuffs
16. skiing
17. ice-skating
18. skating
19. mittens
20. sash

---

#### Column B (Definitions):
1. 32° F or below
2. Blizzard
3. winter storm
4. December
5. January
6. first month of the year
7. frozen raindrops
8. gliding over ice with skates
9. gliding over snow with skis
10. long, hard icy water
11. highest point of the day
12. long spike of ice
13. person who loves snow
14. most garment with sleeves
15. gets so cold it turns to ice
16. to fall down
17. too thin to remove snow from around the back
18. worn over the cap
19. worn over the cap
20. snow on the ground

---

Let’s now match each word to its correct definition:

---

✔ Correct Matches:

1. snow → 20. snow on the ground
2. Day → 11. highest point of the day
3. gloves → 19. worn over the cap *(Wait — this seems off)*
- Actually, gloves are not "worn over the cap". Let's recheck.

Wait! There’s a problem:
- "worn over the cap" appears twice in Column B (items 18 and 19), which is likely a typo.
- Also, "mittens" should be matched to "worn over the cap"? No — that doesn’t make sense.

Let’s look again at the definitions:

Actually, let’s re-express Column B more clearly:

Looking carefully:

- 18. worn over the cap → likely refers to hat or cap, but we don't have “hat” in Column A.
- 19. worn over the cap → duplicate?

Wait — perhaps there's a misprint. Let’s analyze based on logic.

Let’s try to logically match each word:

---

🔍 Logical Matching:

1. snow → 20. snow on the ground ✔
2. Day → 11. highest point of the day (i.e., midday) ✔
3. gloves → ?
- Not “worn over the cap” — that’s for earmuffs or hat?
- Wait: "worn over the cap" might mean "worn over the head" — possibly hat, but not listed.

Wait — maybe "sash" is "worn over the cap"? That doesn’t make sense.

Wait — "sash" is usually a belt-like strip worn around the waist.

Hmm.

Let’s look at the definitions again:

- 18. worn over the cap → likely meant to be "worn over the head" or something else?
- But "mittens" are hand coverings — probably "worn on hands".

But no such definition exists.

Wait — perhaps the definition list has typos.

Let’s try to correctly interpret.

---

Let’s go one by one:

1. snow → 20. snow on the ground ✔
2. Day → 11. highest point of the day ✔ (midday)
3. gloves → ?
- No definition says “hand coverings”, but "mittens" is also in list.
- Maybe "gloves" → "worn on hands"? But not listed.

Wait — "mittens" → "worn on hands" — but not listed.

But look:
- "slip" → 16. to fall down ✔
- "boots" → ?
- "ice" → 15. gets so cold it turns to ice? No — that’s about freezing.

Wait — "ice" → "frozen water" — but not listed directly.

Let’s reassign:

Try this approach:

---

✔ Final Correct Matchings:

| Word | Definition |
|------|-----------|
| 1. snow | 20. snow on the ground |
| 2. Day | 11. highest point of the day |
| 3. gloves | ? → Probably missing definition |
| 4. snowballs | 17. snow formed into balls |
| 5. December | 4. December |
| 6. January | 5. January |
| 7. sled | 9. gliding over snow with skis |
| 8. slip | 16. to fall down |
| 9. boots | 14. most garment with sleeves? No — boots are footwear. Wait — "most garment with sleeves"? That’s coat. |
| 10. ice | 10. long, hard icy water? No — ice is solid water. Wait — icicles are long spikes of ice. |
| 11. coat | 14. most garment with sleeves ✔ |
| 12. cold | 1. 32° F or below ✔ |
| 13. freezing | 15. gets so cold it turns to ice ✔ |
| 14. icicles | 12. long spike of ice ✔ |
| 15. earmuffs | 18. worn over the cap? Possibly — if “cap” means head, then yes — earmuffs are worn over ears, often over a hat. So 18. worn over the cap → earmuffs ✔ |
| 16. skiing | 9. gliding over snow with skis ✔ |
| 17. ice-skating | 8. gliding over ice with skates ✔ |
| 18. skating | same as ice-skating? Or maybe roller skating? But only ice-skating is defined. So skating → 8. gliding over ice with skates? But that’s already used.

Wait — both skiing and skating use similar definitions?

No — skiing → gliding over snow with skis (9)
Ice-skating → gliding over ice with skates (8)
Skating → could be either, but here likely ice-skating, so maybe 18. skating → 8. gliding over ice with skates?

But ice-skating is already #17.

So:
- 17. ice-skating → 8. gliding over ice with skates
- 18. skating → ??? — perhaps same?

But both can’t use the same definition.

Wait — maybe "skating" is a general term, but in context, it’s redundant.

Alternatively, "skating" might be "roller skating", but no definition for that.

Wait — perhaps "skating" → 8. gliding over ice with skates (same as ice-skating)

But that would be duplicate.

Unless "skating" is a mistake.

Wait — "sash" → 17. too thin to remove snow from around the back? That sounds like a scarf or belt — but sash is a decorative band.

Not fitting.

Wait — "sash" → 17. too thin to remove snow from around the back — doesn’t make sense.

Perhaps "sash" is misprinted — maybe "scarf"?

But not listed.

Let’s reevaluate.

---

Let’s List All Words and Possible Matches:

1. snow → 20. snow on the ground ✔
2. Day → 11. highest point of the day ✔
3. gloves → ?
- Not defined — maybe "worn on hands"? But not in list.
- Perhaps "mittens" → worn on hands? But no such definition.

Wait — "mittens" is #19.

But "worn over the cap" appears twice — 18 and 19 — likely a typo.

Maybe "worn over the cap" is for "hat", but not in list.

Wait — "earmuffs" → worn over the ears, often over a cap → so 18. worn over the cap → earmuffs ✔

Then what about "mittens"?

Possibly "worn on hands" — but not listed.

Wait — "gloves" and "mittens" both go on hands.

But "mittens" → 19. worn over the cap? No.

Alternative idea: "sash" → 17. too thin to remove snow from around the back — that sounds like a scarf or towel, but sash is a belt.

Doesn’t fit.

Wait — "sash" might be "scarf" — but not listed.

Another possibility: "sash" → 17. too thin to remove snow from around the back — perhaps meaning "a scarf" that is too thin to keep warm?

But still, not clear.

Wait — "sash" → 17. too thin to remove snow from around the back — maybe it’s "scarf"? But it's written as sash.

This suggests the worksheet may have errors.

But let’s focus on what does make sense.

---

✔ Clear Matches:

| A | B |
|---|---|
| 1. snow | 20. snow on the ground |
| 2. Day | 11. highest point of the day |
| 5. December | 4. December |
| 6. January | 5. January |
| 7. sled | 9. gliding over snow with skis |
| 8. slip | 16. to fall down |
| 11. coat | 14. most garment with sleeves |
| 12. cold | 1. 32° F or below |
| 13. freezing | 15. gets so cold it turns to ice |
| 14. icicles | 12. long spike of ice |
| 15. earmuffs | 18. worn over the cap |
| 16. skiing | 9. gliding over snow with skis |
| 17. ice-skating | 8. gliding over ice with skates |
| 18. skating | 8. gliding over ice with skates? (duplicate?) |

Wait — "skiing" and "ice-skating" both want definition 9 and 8.

But "skiing" → 9. gliding over snow with skis ✔
"ice-skating" → 8. gliding over ice with skates ✔
"skating" → ambiguous — but likely same as ice-skating, so maybe 8 — but already used.

So perhaps "skating" is a typo or redundant.

Now "boots" → ?
- Not defined — but "boot" is footwear — maybe "worn on feet" — not listed.

"ice" → ?
- "long, hard icy water" — that’s icicle? But icicles is #14.

Wait — "ice" → 10. long, hard icy water — doesn't make sense.

Wait — "ice" → frozen water — not listed.

But "freezing" → 15. gets so cold it turns to ice ✔

"gloves" → ?
- No definition for handwear.

"mittens" → ?
- Same issue.

"sash" → 17. too thin to remove snow from around the back — maybe "scarf"? But not listed.

Wait — "sash" might be "scarf", but it's written as "sash".

Alternatively, "sash" → 17. too thin to remove snow from around the back — perhaps meaning "not thick enough to block snow" — maybe "scarf" or "necktie"?

But doesn't fit.

Wait — "sash" is a belt, worn around the waist — not related to removing snow from back.

So likely "sash" is a mistake.

But let’s assume the list is correct.

Another idea: "sash" → 17. too thin to remove snow from around the back — perhaps "a thin scarf"? But not logical.

Wait — "sash" might be "scarf" — typo.

But we must work with what's given.

Let’s try to match all:

Final Best Matchings:

1. snow → 20. snow on the ground
2. Day → 11. highest point of the day
3. gloves → ?? (no good match)
4. snowballs → 17. snow formed into balls (but 17 is "too thin to remove snow..." — no)
- Wait — "snowballs" → "snow formed into balls" — but that definition isn't in B.

Wait — "snowballs" → "snow formed into balls" — but not in list.

But "snow" is #1, "snowballs" is #4.

Is there a definition like "snow formed into balls"?

Look at B:

- 17. too thin to remove snow from around the back — no
- 18. worn over the cap — no
- 19. worn over the cap — duplicate

Wait — "snowballs" → "snow formed into balls" — but not in list.

This suggests the definitions are incomplete or incorrect.

But let’s look at "December" → 4. December ✔
"January" → 5. January ✔
"first month of the year" → 6. first month of the year → so January → 6?

Wait — January is the first month, so:

- 6. January → 6. first month of the year ✔
- 5. December → 4. December ✔

So:

- 5. December → 4. December
- 6. January → 6. first month of the year

Yes!

So now:

| A | B |
|---|---|
| 5. December | 4. December |
| 6. January | 6. first month of the year |

Now "sled" → 9. gliding over snow with skis — but sled is not skiing; it’s sliding on snow.

But "gliding over snow with skis" is for skiing, not sled.

Sled is "gliding over snow on a sled" — not in list.

But "sled" → "gliding over snow" — but no such definition.

Wait — "skiing" → 9. gliding over snow with skis ✔
"sled" → ? — no match.

But "sled" is not mentioned in any definition.

Wait — "sled" might be "sleigh", but not in list.

This suggests the worksheet has incomplete or mismatched definitions.

But let’s try to find a coherent solution.

---

After careful analysis, here is the most logical matching:

| A | B |
|---|---|
| 1. snow | 20. snow on the ground |
| 2. Day | 11. highest point of the day |
| 3. gloves | 19. worn over the cap? No — better: maybe "worn on hands" — but not in list. Skip for now. |
| 4. snowballs | 17. snow formed into balls? But not in list. |
| 5. December | 4. December |
| 6. January | 6. first month of the year |
| 7. sled | 9. gliding over snow with skis? No — that’s skiing. Sled is different. |
| 8. slip | 16. to fall down |
| 9. boots | 14. most garment with sleeves? No — boots are footwear. |
| 10. ice | 10. long, hard icy water? No — ice is solid water. |
| 11. coat | 14. most garment with sleeves ✔ |
| 12. cold | 1. 32° F or below ✔ |
| 13. freezing | 15. gets so cold it turns to ice ✔ |
| 14. icicles | 12. long spike of ice ✔ |
| 15. earmuffs | 18. worn over the cap ✔ |
| 16. skiing | 9. gliding over snow with skis ✔ |
| 17. ice-skating | 8. gliding over ice with skates ✔ |
| 18. skating | 8. gliding over ice with skates? (duplicate) |
| 19. mittens | 19. worn over the cap? No — should be "worn on hands" |
| 20. sash | 17. too thin to remove snow from around the back? Doesn't make sense |

---

Conclusion:

The worksheet appears to have several errors:
- Duplicate definitions (e.g., "worn over the cap" appears twice)
- Missing definitions (e.g., for gloves, mittens, snowballs, sled)
- Incorrect matches (e.g., "sled" should not be matched to "gliding over snow with skis")
- Some definitions don't make sense (e.g., "sash" → "too thin to remove snow...")

However, based on logical reasoning, here is the best possible matching:

---

✔ Final Answer (Best Possible Match):

| Number | Word | Matched Definition |
|--------|-------------|---------------------|
| 1 | snow | 20. snow on the ground |
| 2 | Day | 11. highest point of the day |
| 3 | gloves | [No suitable match] |
| 4 | snowballs | [No suitable match] |
| 5 | December | 4. December |
| 6 | January | 6. first month of the year |
| 7 | sled | [No suitable match] |
| 8 | slip | 16. to fall down |
| 9 | boots | [No suitable match] |
| 10 | ice | [No suitable match] |
| 11 | coat | 14. most garment with sleeves |
| 12 | cold | 1. 32° F or below |
| 13 | freezing | 15. gets so cold it turns to ice |
| 14 | icicles | 12. long spike of ice |
| 15 | earmuffs | 18. worn over the cap |
| 16 | skiing | 9. gliding over snow with skis |
| 17 | ice-skating | 8. gliding over ice with skates |
| 18 | skating | 8. gliding over ice with skates (likely same as ice-skating) |
| 19 | mittens | [No suitable match] |
| 20 | sash | [No suitable match] |

🚨 Note:

There are multiple issues with the worksheet:
- Definitions are missing or duplicated.
- Some terms (like "sash", "snowballs", "gloves") lack proper definitions.
- "worn over the cap" appears twice — likely a typo.

If this is for a classroom, the teacher may need to revise the worksheet.
