What this worksheet teaches

Sort pictures into things that are part of a computer and things that are not (book, pencil, mouse, monitor).
Understand that a computer only does what someone tells it to do - it does not decide by itself.
Practise the safe habits of clean dry hands, no food near the keys, and asking a grown-up before switching anything off.
Name the four parts a Grade 1 child actually touches - screen, keyboard, mouse and power button - and point to each in a picture.

How to use this worksheet

At Grade 1 the words are harder than the ideas. Read each label out loud for your child before they write it - 'monitor' and 'mouse' both start with M and get swapped constantly. If a real computer or tablet is in the room, point at the part as you say its name, then come back to the paper.

Sample questions from this worksheet

Which part helps select icons?
Which part is like a TV?

Frequently asked questions

Is a tablet fine instead of a desktop computer?

For the screen and touch ideas, yes. For keyboard and mouse questions a laptop helps, because a tablet has no separate mouse to point at.

My child has never touched a computer. Can they still do this?

Yes. Everything is answered on paper from pictures, and the sheet assumes no prior experience. Showing them a phone or tablet screen while you work is enough real-world reference.

Why does my child keep mixing up mouse and monitor?

Both start with the same sound, which is the single most common Grade 1 error here. Saying 'monitor - the one you look at' every time you read the word clears it up faster than correcting the written answer.
