About this worksheet
Eleven clues with a line after each one, and every clue describes a part by what it does rather than where it sits. You talk with this. These turn red when you are shy. This is your fattest finger. Your heart is inside this. This covers your whole body.
Describing a part by its job is the move that makes this different from the labeling sheets in this set. Nothing on the page can be answered by looking at a picture, so a child has to run the clue backwards from what a part does to what it is called, and cheeks, thumb, nails and skin all come out of that reasoning rather than out of a word bank. It works nicely as a companion to the other clue sheet here, since the two share a format but almost no answers.
