Easter Read, Trace, and Color Worksheet

This Easter-themed worksheet gives preschool children structured practice with early literacy and fine motor tasks. Children read the word “easter,” trace the dotted letters, and color both the word and the bunny picture. These activities help children recognize sight words, match uppercase and lowercase letters, and practice letter formation. Tracing the dotted lines supports pencil control, while coloring strengthens hand muscles and improves coordination.

The simple layout allows children to focus on one task at a time: read, color, trace, and color again. This makes it useful for short literacy sessions, independent practice, or small group instruction during an Easter theme week.

How to Use This Worksheet

In the classroom, introduce the word easter by reading it aloud together. Point to each letter and identify the beginning sound. Model how to trace the dotted letters slowly, starting at the top. Encourage children to use proper pencil grip.

For small groups, children can take turns reading the word and tracing one line at a time. For independent practice, place the worksheet in a literacy center with crayons and pencils.

Extension ideas:

Have children write the word on blank paper without tracing.
Ask children to circle the letter e each time it appears.
Count the Easter eggs in the picture and write the number.
Use magnetic letters to build the word.

Easter Cut and Paste Math Worksheet

The Easter Cut and Paste Math Worksheet gives preschool children hands-on practice with counting and number recognition. Children count Easter-themed pictures such as eggs or bunnies, then cut and paste the correct number to match each group. This activity strengthens one-to-one correspondence and helps children recognize numbers in a clear, structured format.

Before starting, review numbers together and count each picture out loud. Model how to cut along straight lines and apply glue carefully. For small groups, children can count together and check each other’s work. For independent practice, provide pre-cut numbers for children who need support with scissors.

Extension ideas include:

Sorting the cut pieces by number before gluing
Placing the numbers in order from least to greatest
Using counters or small manipulatives to match each number
Writing the number word under each group

This worksheet works well during math centers, seasonal units, or short practice sessions focused on counting skills.
