this is a 'Who was it?' worksheet. Students will draw a line from the statement to the correct person. There is a choice of with a picture or without and a teacher's answer sheet is included.

Kids love using these education/instruction pocket cubes for games. Print the cube squares and cut. Insert into the slots and a fun learning game is ready! It is worth the initial investment and you can create pictures, questions, or whatever you can think of to use these. You can find them at Amazon, Carson Dellosa, eBay, Dollar stores, teacher supply stores, etc. Or you can print the cube template. Cut around the outside, fold on all the lines and tape/glue the tabs to the inside to make a square. If you want to reuse, insert a box, foam, etc. to the inside and this will help it keep its shape.
