Summer Weather Needs and Wants

Soak up the sun as you complete this worksheet about needs and wants! First, learners will draw things two people may need during hot summer weather. Students will name the item and write why it is a need. Then, learners are asked to draw and write about two things that people may want during hot weather.

Created for first and second graders, this activity will encourage students to think about the differences between needs and wants. Familiarity with this concept can help students as they start learning about budgeting and money management. This worksheet also illustrates how needs and wants may vary under specific circumstances, such as the weather.
