Animals and Their Homes Matching Worksheet

Printable activity · 3 pages

Choose the kind of animal match

Help me choose

One activity matches identical pictures; the other connects an animal to its home. They practice different rules, so begin by explaining what counts as a match.

Match the same picture

Find the identical rabbit, bird, snail and butterfly. Cut four picture cards and place each in its matching space.

Match animals to homes

Connect a bird, dog and rabbit with a nest, doghouse and burrow. Talk through why each animal belongs with its pictured home.

Check before pasting

Keep the cards loose until all matches are placed. If a child is not ready to cut, an adult can prepare the cards first.

Are both worksheets animal-habitat activities?

No. Garden Animal Picture Matching uses identical pictures. Animals and Their Homes uses animal-to-home relationships.

What is included with the garden animal worksheet?

The student worksheet includes four animal cards and four matching spaces. A separate second page provides the answer guide.
