Match Jobs with the Things They Use

Hi! Let's play a matching game. You'll see a list of jobs and a list of things (tools). Your job is to match each job to the thing that the person uses.

How to match — 4 easy steps

1. Look at one job (for example, "firefighter").
2. Look at the things and picture which one that job would need.
3. Draw a line or write the letter of the thing next to the job.
4. If you're not sure, try another job and come back later. Use process of elimination.

Activity — Match the jobs (1–8) with the things (A–H)

Try to do this on paper: draw a line from the number to the letter, or write the letter next to the number.

Write your answers like this: 1 = ____ , 2 = ____ , …

Answers — check here after you try!

1. 1 = G (Firefighter → Hose). Firefighters use a hose to put out fires.
2. 2 = B (Doctor → Stethoscope). Doctors listen to hearts and lungs with a stethoscope.
3. 3 = H (Chef → Spatula and chef's hat). Chefs use spatulas and wear a chef's hat while cooking.
4. 4 = F (Teacher → Chalk and book). Teachers use books and chalk (or markers) to teach students.
5. 5 = A (Farmer → Tractor). Farmers use tractors to plow fields and help grow crops.
6. 6 = D (Mail carrier → Mail bag). Mail carriers carry letters and packages in a mail bag.
7. 7 = E (Builder → Hammer). Builders use hammers and other tools to build houses.
8. 8 = C (Photographer → Camera). Photographers take pictures with a camera.

Great job! If you want, I can make another worksheet with pictures or more jobs. Tell me which jobs you like and I'll make a new game.
