Chrysanthemum Worksheet – PreK-1st Grade Practice

The Chrysanthemum Worksheet gives preschool through first grade students focused, no-prep practice with independent and guided reading. It is a print-and-go reading page that fits easily into a mini-lesson, a center rotation, or a quick review day.

Learning objective: Students will build accuracy and confidence with independent and guided reading through short, focused practice that reinforces what was taught in class.

Why it works: Practice like this gives students a chance to try independent and guided reading on their own after you teach it. Because the page is quick to complete and easy to review, it fits into almost any part of the school day.

What's included:

• 1 printable worksheet page

• Cover page

How it's organized: Students read the directions at the top, complete the practice items one at a time, and finish with a quick look back over their work.

Grade level: Designed for preschool through first grade students. It also works well for second grade students who need extra practice or a fresh review.

How to use it: Assign it after a mini-lesson, use it in a small group, send it home as homework, keep it in your sub folder, or use it as a quick formative check.

Answer key: This page does not include a separate answer key.

Teaching tips and variations:

• Project the page and solve one or two items as a class before students work on their own.

• Slip the page into a sheet protector so students can practice again with dry-erase markers.

• Use it as an exit ticket the day after a independent and guided reading lesson to see who needs more support.
