Let's go through the worksheet step by step and solve each part. Since I can't see the actual image, I will interpret based on the structure and common types of questions in such worksheets.

---

1. Shape


Objects shown: Book, square, scissors, donut
- The book, square, and donut are all shapes (2D or 3D forms).
- Scissors are a tool with a specific function, not a shape.
Answer: Put an X on scissors

---

2. Size


Objects shown: Dinosaur, two small animals, car
- The dinosaur is large; the other two animals are small.
- The car is also medium to large.
- But the two small animals are similar in size and smaller than the others.
- However, the question asks which does not belong in terms of size.
- Likely, the dinosaur is much larger than the others → it doesn’t belong due to being significantly bigger.
Answer: Put an X on the dinosaur

3. Texture


Objects shown: Apple, leaf, pencil, doughnut
- Apple: smooth or slightly bumpy
- Leaf: rough or veiny
- Pencil: smooth (wooden or plastic)
- Doughnut: soft, possibly sugary texture
- All are objects with textures, but the doughnut is edible and has a soft, sweet texture, while others are tools/natural items.
- But the key here might be edibility or material type.
- Alternatively, pencil is made of wood/graphite, while others are natural/food.
- Most likely, the pencil is the one that does not belong because it's a man-made writing tool, unlike the natural or food items.
Answer: Put an X on the pencil

4–7. Describe the properties of a lollipop


These are open-ended descriptive questions.

4. Color: Typically red, pink, yellow, green, etc. (Example: Red)
5. Shape: Round or circular (Example: Round)
6. Texture: Smooth and hard (when solid), sticky when melted (Example: Smooth and hard)
7. Size: Small (fits in hand) (Example: Small)

> Answers may vary, but these are typical.

8. Circle the object that is the heaviest


Objects shown: Lollipop, cupcake, elephant
- Elephant is clearly the heaviest.
Answer: Circle the elephant

9 & 10. Sink or Float?


Use the Word Bank: Rock, Feather, Apple, Paper

Pick 2 items from the list and say if they sink or float.

| Item | Sink or Float? |
|----------|----------------|
| Rock | Sink |
| Feather | Float |
| Apple | Float (due to air pockets) |
| Paper | Float (if dry), but sinks if wet |

So:

9. Sink: Rock
10. Float: Feather (or Apple, or Paper — any reasonable choice)

Example answer:
- 9. Sink: Rock
- 10. Float: Feather
