These Family Worksheets for Kindergarten ESL are designed to help students practice words like mother, father, brother, and sister through fun and meaningful activities such as tracing, matching, coloring, and cutting. Worksheets provide an important step in language learning because they allow students to practice vocabulary independently while developing fine motor skills.
Family Worksheets toReinforce vocabulary through repetition
Listen and color using the adjective words.Cut through the lines and then you have small cards for the
students to play games. Assign a color for each family member. Teacher: Baby brother is blue!
I made a family album using the Family Unit vocabulary worksheets. I glued each card onto a file folder and made it look like an album. You can ask questions.
Teacher: Who is this?
Student: It's brother!
Teacher: What is his name?
Student: Peter!
There is a set of numbers 1 to 10 for the students to color.Teacher: Number one is orange.The students have to place the number on the family member.Teacher: Number two is on the baby sister.
Making it a little more clear with the video!
Provide a way for your students to connect prior knowledge (numbers) to new knowledge (family members). Use bottle caps with the numbers 1 to 8 written using a sharpie. Have the students place them as you say as a listening activity.
Teacher: Number 3 is on Mommy!
Listen, trace and color worksheets set for the family unit. Practice early writing skills (tracing words). Trace the family members words using only one color for each one.

When all family members are traced have the students add a
characteristic to each member. It could be glasses for grandma and grandpa. A
ball for brother and so on.Students cut each family member to make puppets by gluing
them onto craft sticks creating family puppets.Teacher: Who's this? Students: It's grandpa!Teacher: Trace him blue.
Using an egg holder students can sort the members into boy
and girl and young and old.
Improve fine motor skills (cutting, coloring)
Even more, have the students cut around each family member and tape them onto straws ( I have recycled from Burger King). Students will have puppets to play games such as Show me!Teacher: Show me Daddy!

Listen, trace and draw pages
More family members to
add parts of the face. Or, it can be to draw the emotions as you dictate them.Teacher: Brother is sad.Use bottle caps to have students point to any phrase or
sentence you say. Teacher: Dad is angry.Teacher: Mom and sister are happy.
Dictate how each family members looks like. It would be good to have each finger puppet ready to describe to the students and have them color each family member.
Teacher: Look ! This is dad. His hair is brown. His eyes are yellow. His nose is brown. He is a rectangle. The rectangle is purple.
I assembled the finger puppets by cutting each family member
and gluing them onto fun foam, I let the bottom of each shape open to put the
finger inside. I could place my fingers inside, I am sure that the student’s
little finger will be able to fit.
worksheet to draw the family members
There is a personalisation worksheet for the students to draw their family members portrait. Explain to your students that they will draw their family and later describe their picture to the class.
They can introduce the family members using the grammar structure: This is my family.He's my dad. She's my mom. This is me!
This activity will help your children to relate the learned language to their own lives.
Also ask about their names.
Teacher: What's you mother's name?
Student: Patricia!
Ask about how many brothers and sisters they have.
Teacher: How many brothers do you have?
Have them decorate the family picture frame.
