About this sheet
What is on the page, and how to get the most out of it.
Two columns of five fruits, apple, banana, watermelon, orange and strawberry, scrambled so the order differs down each side. Your child draws a line joining each fruit to its pair.
Matching is a different kind of task from tracing or counting. There is no fixed route across the page, so your child has to look at one item, hold it in mind, search the other column, and only then draw. The drawing is the smallest part of it.
These fruits are strongly colour coded, which makes this the gentlest sheet in the matching set. An apple is the only red round one, a banana the only yellow curved one. A child can succeed here on colour alone without examining shape at all, and that is fine as a starting point.
The lines themselves are worth watching too. Joining two points that are not directly opposite means drawing a diagonal across an open page with nothing to follow, which is harder than tracing a dotted guide.
What your child practises
Colour makes this the easiest sheet to match, but the lines are freehand rather than traced.
- Holding an item in mind while searching
- Drawing a freehand line between two points

Common questions
Which matching worksheet should we start with?
This one. The fruits are strongly colour coded, so a child can succeed on colour alone before having to look closely at shape.
My child matches correctly but the lines are messy.
Those are two separate skills. Joining points across an open page with no dotted guide is harder than tracing, so a correct but wobbly line is a success.
What age are matching sheets for?
Roughly 3 to 6. Younger children can point at the pairs and let you draw the lines, which still practises the looking and remembering.
