Winter Weather Needs and Wants

Differentiate between needs and wants with this winter-themed worksheet! To start, learners will focus on things people may need during cold weather. Students will draw a picture of each item, write its name, and explain why it is needed. Then, learners are asked to draw and write about two things that people may want during the winter.

Tailored for first and second graders, this worksheet will prompt students to think about how needs and wants may vary under specific circumstances, like the weather. Differentiating between needs and wants can help students as they begin to learn financial concepts, such as budgeting.
