This or That worksheet for children to practice using demonstrative pronouns with visual cues.

The worksheet titled "This or That" is designed to help children practice identifying and labeling objects, people, or places based on visual cues. Each sentence has a blank where the child must fill in the correct word (either "This" or "That") depending on whether the object or person is near or far from the speaker.

Let's go through each item step by step:

---

How to Solve:

- "This" is used for something close to the speaker.
- "That" is used for something farther away.
- The arrow points from the subject to the picture. We need to determine if the picture is close or distant relative to the speaker (implied by context).

But here’s the key: In these types of worksheets, the arrow direction usually indicates what the sentence is referring to, and the choice between "This" or "That" depends on proximity.

However, since there's no actual speaker shown in the image, we assume that:
- The subject (e.g., "my friend", "Disneyland") is being pointed to.
- The word "This" or "That" should be chosen based on which one makes sense grammatically and logically with the image.

But wait — looking at the format, it seems like the blank is meant to be filled with "This" or "That", and the arrow points from the blank to the image. So the structure is:

> [______] is my friend. → [picture]

So the blank refers to the thing shown in the picture. But since the picture is *after* the arrow, the thing described is not the speaker’s immediate vicinity.

Actually, in standard English usage:
- If the picture is close to the speaker, use "This".
- If the picture is far away, use "That".

But in this worksheet, no spatial context is given — only pictures and arrows.

Wait — let's look carefully.

Each line has:
1. A blank: ______
2. A phrase: e.g., "is my friend"
3. An arrow pointing to a picture

So the sentence is:
"______ is my friend." → [image of a girl]

We are to choose "This" or "That" to complete the sentence.

Now, since the arrow points from the sentence to the image, it means the image is what is being referred to.

In English, when you point to something near you, you say "This"; when it's far, you say "That".

But again, no distance is indicated.

So how do we decide?

Here’s the key insight: In such worksheets, "This" is typically used when the object is close (like nearby), and "That" when it's distant. But without explicit context, we assume that the image is being presented as a reference, and the choice depends on convention.

But actually, in most such exercises, the word "This" is used for things that are close (presented directly), and "That" for things that are distant or not immediately present.

But here, all images are shown on the page, so they are all equally visible.

Wait — perhaps the arrow direction is meant to indicate which one is being referred to, but the sentence structure implies that the object is being identified.

But let’s consider the logical meaning of each sentence.

Let’s go one by one:

---

1. ______ is my friend. → [girl]

- The picture shows a girl.
- Since the girl is shown directly, and the sentence identifies her, we use "This".
- ✔ This is my friend.

2. ______ is Disneyland. → [castle]

- The picture is a castle (like Disney castle).
- It's a landmark, and since it's shown clearly, and we're identifying it, we use "This".
- ✔ This is Disneyland.

3. ______ is an elephant. → [elephant]

- Picture shows an elephant.
- Direct identification: This is an elephant.
- ✔ This is an elephant.

4. ______ is our house. → [house]

- Picture shows a small house.
- Again, direct identification: This is our house.
- ✔ This is our house.

5. ______ is a mouse. → [mouse]

- Picture shows a mouse.
- This is a mouse.
- ✔ This is a mouse.

6. ______ is an aeroplane. → [airplane]

- Picture shows an airplane.
- This is an aeroplane.
- ✔ This is an aeroplane.

7. ______ is a chair. → [chair]

- Picture shows a chair.
- This is a chair.
- ✔ This is a chair.

8. ______ is a truck. → [truck]

- Picture shows a red truck.
- This is a truck.
- ✔ This is a truck.

9. ______ is my father. → [man]

- Picture shows a man.
- This is my father.
- ✔ This is my father.

10. ______ is a horse. → [horse]

- Picture shows a horse.
- This is a horse.
- ✔ This is a horse.

---

Conclusion:

All the images are directly shown and being identified. There is no indication of distance, so the correct word is always "This", because the object is present and being pointed to.

Even though "That" could be used for something distant, in this context, since the picture is right there on the page and being referred to, "This" is appropriate.

✔ Final Answers:

1. This is my friend.
2. This is Disneyland.
3. This is an elephant.
4. This is our house.
5. This is a mouse.
6. This is an aeroplane.
7. This is a chair.
8. This is a truck.
9. This is my father.
10. This is a horse.

Explanation:

The worksheet teaches the difference between "this" (for things close) and "that" (for things far). However, since all the images are shown directly and being identified, the intended answer is "This" for all items. This helps children associate "This" with objects they are seeing now.

If the worksheet had shown two options (e.g., "This is a cat. That is a dog."), then both would be needed. But here, each sentence refers to one image, so "This" fits best.
