THE WORKSHEET

The full sheet, exactly as it prints.

This page is the worksheet’s home: see the whole sheet, download it or print it, and pass it on. Solving on screen happens in the class’s own activities on the Learning Path — this page is for the table, the kitchen and the fridge door.

Three numbered clue pictures — muddy footprints by an open door, a plate of cookie crumbs, and a tipped flowerpot with a kitten — each above two answer cards.
ABOUT THIS WORKSHEET

What your child practices.

Reading clues to name what happened is inference with pictures: each clue rules out one suspect and backs another. The explaining is the growth point — “the footprints are muddy, so it was the puppy!” — and each wrong answer is a lovely chance to ask WHY not.

  • Reading picture clues
  • Inference (who did it?)
  • Explaining why not
  • Mystery vocabulary

On the sheet: Look at the clues. Circle what happened!
