Light Sources Coloring Sheet - Pre-k by Lyns Classroom Resources - Free Printable

This worksheet is titled "All About Light" and shows five different sources of light:

- Sun
- Stars
- Lamp
- Lightbulb
- Fire

Since there’s no specific question written on the page (like “Circle the natural light sources” or “Which ones use electricity?”), but the title is “All About Light,” it’s likely that this is a labeling or identification activity, or perhaps part of a larger lesson where students are learning to recognize things that give off light.

However, looking at the layout — with images already labeled (“Sun”, “Stars”, “Lamp”, “Lightbulb”, “Fire”) — and blank lines for “Name” and “Date” at the top — this appears to be a worksheet header or cover page for a unit on light. There may be questions on another page, or instructions were given orally by the teacher.

But since you’ve asked me to “solve the problem accurately,” and there’s no explicit question… let’s think: What might a student be expected to do here?

Possibility 1: Identify which are natural vs. artificial light sources.

Let’s check:

✔ Natural light sources (occur in nature without humans making them):
- Sun
- Stars
- Fire (if we mean wildfire or campfire from wood — though fire can also be made by humans, it’s still considered a natural phenomenon)

⚠️ Artificial light sources (made by humans):
- Lamp
- Lightbulb

Wait — actually, “fire” is tricky. A campfire is started by humans, but fire itself is a natural process. In elementary science, fire is often grouped under “natural” if it’s not electrically powered. But sometimes teachers separate “man-made fire” as artificial. Let’s stick with common classroom grouping:

Typical K–5 classification:

Natural:
- Sun
- Stars
- Fire (as in flames from burning wood — even if lit by humans, the light comes from a natural chemical reaction)

Artificial:
- Lamp
- Lightbulb

BUT — some curricula classify “fire” as artificial if it’s controlled by humans (like a candle or campfire). Hmm.

Actually, let’s look again: The image includes “Fire” drawn as a campfire — logs and flames. That’s typically taught as a natural source in early grades because it doesn’t require electricity or complex machines — just fuel + heat.

So final grouping:

🌞 Natural Light Sources:
- Sun
- Stars
- Fire

💡 Artificial Light Sources:
- Lamp
- Lightbulb

If the hidden task was to sort these, that would make sense.

Alternatively, maybe the student is supposed to count how many light sources are shown? That’s 5.

Or maybe circle the ones that need electricity? Then: Lamp and Lightbulb.

But without an explicit instruction, I have to guess based on standard curriculum.

Another possibility: This is just a vocabulary sheet — and the “problem” is simply to read and recognize the words and pictures. In that case, there’s nothing to “solve.”

Wait — perhaps the user expects me to notice that all these things emit light, and the point is to identify them as light sources. So the answer could be: All of these are sources of light.

But again — no question is stated.

Given the context of being a homework helper, and the fact that this looks like a typical elementary science worksheet, I’ll assume the most common follow-up question for such a page is:

> “Which of these are natural light sources? Which are artificial?”

And since that’s a very common objective in early science units on light, I’ll go with that.

Step-by-step reasoning:

1. Look at each item.
2. Ask: Did humans invent/make this to produce light? Or does it happen in nature?
- Sun → happens in space naturally → NATURAL
- Stars → same → NATURAL
- Lamp → human-made object that uses electricity or oil → ARTIFICIAL
- Lightbulb → invented by humans, needs electricity → ARTIFICIAL
- Fire → occurs naturally (volcanoes, lightning strikes), but also made by humans. In school contexts, especially with a campfire drawing, it’s often called NATURAL because the light comes from combustion, not technology.

In many textbooks (e.g., McGraw-Hill Science Grade 1), fire is listed under natural light sources when comparing to sun and stars.

Example:
Natural: Sun, stars, fireflies, fire
Artificial: lamps, flashlights, TVs, lightbulbs

So yes — fire = natural in this context.

Therefore:

Natural: Sun, Stars, Fire
Artificial: Lamp, Lightbulb

If the worksheet had checkboxes or columns, that’s what would be filled in.

Since there’s no visible question, but you asked me to solve it — I’ll provide the most logical educational response.

Final Answer:
The natural light sources are: Sun, Stars, Fire.
The artificial light sources are: Lamp, Lightbulb.
