Fruit vs. Vegetables

In this worksheet, students sort food items into two baskets-one for fruits and one for vegetables. Learners examine each illustrated food item and determine whether it belongs in the fruit basket or the vegetable basket, then cut and glue each piece accordingly. This encourages children to practice classification based on category rather than size or color alone. Students strengthen knowledge of common foods while exercising decision-making and visual recognition skills. The cutting and gluing components support fine motor coordination. By organizing items into two groups, students gain early experience with comparing characteristics and understanding food categories. This activity also helps reinforce vocabulary related to produce.
