This worksheet is designed to help differentiate between needs and wants. The purpose is to teach the concept that there are certain things essential for survival (needs) like food, water, shelter, and air, while other things are desires that enhance life but aren’t necessary for survival (wants) like toys, games, and ice cream.
The worksheet provides a list of items and asks the student to categorize them as either needs or wants. This activity helps reinforce the understanding of the difference between these two concepts and encourages critical thinking about the things we prioritize in life.
