People at Work: Jobs Vocabulary Matching

About this worksheet

The big one: twenty-five workers in a grid, each with a small circle to fill, and a numbered word list running down the side from astronaut to veterinarian. Kids find each picture in the list and write its number in the circle. With jobs like electrician, pharmacist, surgeon, and journalist alongside the everyday ones, it is a genuine second-grade vocabulary workout.

Twenty-five items make this the anchor page of the set, best saved for after the shorter matching and circle sheets have introduced the words. Filling numbers instead of drawing lines keeps a busy grid readable, and it doubles as a reference poster of “people at work” once it is done.

What students will practice

• Match 25 workers to a numbered vocabulary list
• Write the right number in the circle under each picture
• Read harder job words like pharmacist and veterinarian
