Here’s the solution to the “Air Transportation” worksheet, with each image correctly identified and labeled:
---
1) Airplane
*(Also called an aeroplane or plane)*
→ A fixed-wing aircraft powered by engines, used for transporting people or cargo through the air.
2) Rocket
→ A vehicle that uses thrust from expelling exhaust gases to propel itself upward, often used to reach space or for scientific/defense purposes.
3) Helicopter
→ A rotary-wing aircraft that uses spinning blades (rotors) on top to generate lift and propulsion, allowing it to hover, take off vertically, and fly in any direction.
4) Parachute
→ A device made of fabric that opens into a canopy to slow down a person or object falling through the air. While not a “vehicle” itself, it is a means of air transportation/descent.
5) Hot Air Balloon
→ A lighter-than-air aircraft consisting of a large fabric envelope filled with heated air, which makes it rise. It drifts with the wind and is steered by changing altitude.
6) Blimp / Airship
→ A non-rigid airship filled with helium or hydrogen that floats in the air. It has engines and steering fins to move through the sky — often used for advertising or observation.

✔ Final Answers to Write in the Spaces:
1)
Airplane
2)
Rocket
3)
Helicopter
4)
Parachute
5)
Hot Air Balloon
6)
Blimp (or
Airship)

📌 *Note:* The term “blimp” is commonly used for small, non-rigid airships like the one shown. “Airship” is the broader category. Either is acceptable at this level.

Coloring Tip: Encourage students to color each image creatively — for example, blue sky background, red airplane, yellow hot air balloon, etc.
This activity helps children learn different types of air vehicles while practicing vocabulary and fine motor skills (coloring).
