Fun and engaging "this" word recognition worksheet for early learners.

Let’s solve this step by step.

First, look at the top left box — it says “this” in big letters. That’s our focus word.

In the second box on the left, there are two columns of words. We need to find and circle every time the word “this” appears.

Left column:
- this → ✔ (circle it)
- that
- they
- thus
- this → ✔ (circle it)

Right column:
- that
- this → ✔ (circle it)
- this → ✔ (circle it)
- thus
- this → ✔ (circle it)

So we circle 5 times total:
→ First row left
→ Fifth row left
→ Second row right
→ Third row right
→ Fifth row right

Now, the maze on the right — you start at the green dot and end at the red dot. But since we’re not drawing, just know that if you were doing it, you’d trace a path from green to red without going through walls.

Next, the picture section: There are 4 pictures — tie, wheel, ink bottle, frame. Below them are 4 boxes. You write one letter in each box to spell “this”. So:

Box 1: t
Box 2: h
Box 3: i
Box 4: s

Then, the writing lines — you can practice writing “this” over and over. The bird is holding a pencil to remind you to write!

Finally, at the bottom, there are dotted boxes with letters already inside: t, h, i, s — so you can trace them to learn how to write the word.

All parts of this worksheet help you learn the word “this” — seeing it, finding it, spelling it, tracing it, and writing it.

Final Answer:
Circle these instances of “this”:
- Left column: first and fifth rows
- Right column: second, third, and fifth rows
Spell “this” in the four boxes under the pictures: t - h - i - s
Trace and write “this” on the lines and in the bottom boxes.
