Let’s go step by step through each part of the worksheet to solve it correctly.
---
1. Color it!
→ This is just coloring the big word “are” in the oval. No writing needed here — just color the letters a-r-e.
---
2. Trace and write it!
→ First, trace over the dotted letters:
a r e
→ Then, on the blank lines below, write the word “are” two more times by yourself.
So you’ll write:
- are (traced)
- are (written)
- are (written)
---
3. Write it!
→ There are three empty boxes. You need to write one letter in each box to spell “are”.
Box 1:
a
Box 2:
r
Box 3:
e
---
4. Connect the letters!
→ Look at the flowers with letters:
Top row: a, o, e
Bottom row: c, r, b
You need to connect the letters that spell “are”:
→ Connect
a (top left) →
r (bottom middle) →
e (top right)
Draw lines from a to r to e.

5. The fish ___ swimming.
→ We’re filling in the blank with the sight word “are”.
The sentence becomes:
“The fish are swimming.”
(Yes — even though “fish” can be singular or plural, in this context with multiple fish shown, we use “are”.)
---
6. Find and color it!
→ Look at all the ovals with words inside.
Find every oval that says
“are” and color them.
Words given:
- are
✔
- eat
- are
✔
- ant
- are
✔
- oat
- are
✔
- one
- can
Wait — let’s count carefully:
List again:
1. are → YES
2. eat → NO
3. are → YES
4. ant → NO
5. are → YES
6. oat → NO
7. are → YES
8. one → NO
9. can → NO
That’s
four instances of “are” to color.
Actually — looking again at the layout:
From left to right, top to bottom:
Row 1:
- are
- eat
- are
- ant
- are
Row 2:
- oat
- are
- one
- can
So positions with “are”:
1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th → total of
4
Color those four ovals.

✔ All tasks completed!
Final Answer:
For "Write it!": a, r, e
For "Connect the letters!": connect a → r → e
For "The fish ___ swimming.": are
For "Find and color it!": color the four ovals containing the word "are"
