Match the sheet to the child
Pre-K and K prompts take a drawing or one spoken word. As toddler interview questions, ask them aloud and write what a three-year-old says. Grades 1 to 2 take a few words; Grades 3 to 5 ask for a sentence and a reason. The Sheet box holds First day of school, all about me questions for students, and Birthday interview, the kids interview questions.
Print it for one child or a class
Swap any question you do not want, or take it away with the × beside it. It prints in two columns under Name, Age and Date lines. A closed Show example cover prints as a write-on line. The samples print on a last page; leave it out of a class set.
- For a birthday interview, keep the printed sheet.
- A kindergartner may draw or dictate an answer. The Common Core kindergarten writing standards ask for "a combination of drawing, dictating, and writing".
- Before a sheet goes on a wall or online, check for a first name only and cover the date: age plus date gives a birthday.
Questions and answers
What questions go on an all about me sheet for kids?
Mix quick facts with one or two that take thought. The 8 groups here are favorites, what I can do, feelings, school and learning, play and friends, when I grow up, best days, and wishes and what-ifs. Eight to twelve is plenty for one sitting.
Can a preschooler fill in an all about me sheet?
With a grown-up holding the pen, yes. The CDC milestone list says most children answer simple questions and draw a person with three or more body parts by age 4. Read each question aloud, write the answer word for word, and let the child draw.
What are good kids interview questions for a birthday?
A short set you ask on every birthday and keep, to compare the answers a year apart. Choose Birthday interview, print, and fill in the name, age and date. Cover the date before posting: with the age it gives a date of birth.
Does the page keep what my child writes?
No. Nothing is typed into the page, so the answers exist only on paper. This browser remembers which questions you have seen, kept or checked.
