UKG Worksheets (Ages 5–6): Printable PDF Packs

UKG worksheets for ages 5 to 6 prepare a child for Class 1. In most Indian UKG classes, whether the school follows CBSE, ICSE or a state board, children start reading three-letter (CVC) words and common sight words, write short words and their full name neatly, count and write numbers to 100, add and take away within 10, read the time to the hour, and learn EVS topics such as the body, animals, the seasons and our world.

The packs below are grouped by subject: English and phonics, maths and numbers, EVS and general knowledge, handwriting and fine motor, and shapes, patterns and colouring. Every pack is a print-ready PDF, and the bundles gather a whole subject into one download. Fifteen to twenty minutes a day is enough for most five-year-olds; the aim is a confident reader and counter, not a full notebook.

UKG English worksheets: CVC words, sight words and phonics

The big step in UKG is blending: putting c-a-t together to read cat. Word-building mats, word families such as -at, -an and -ig, and sight-word flashcards give a few minutes of daily practice, and rhyming games keep it light. Once blending clicks, children start writing simple words and then short phrases of their own.

UKG maths worksheets: numbers to 100, addition and time

UKG maths runs the numbers up to 100 and introduces simple sums. Children fill in missing numbers on a 1 to 100 chart, count in 2s, 5s and 10s, find the pairs that make 10, add within 10 and read o'clock times. Number bingo turns the same practice into a game for the whole family or the whole class.

UKG EVS and general knowledge worksheets

UKG EVS widens from the child's own world to the wider one: parts of the body and the senses, animals and their homes, the months and the seasons, keeping track of the weather, and a first look at a map of the world and its continents.

All General Knowledge

UKG handwriting and fine motor worksheets

Handwriting in UKG means letters of an even size, sitting on the line, with a finger space between words. Name tracing, mazes and dot-to-dot keep pencil control improving, and there is a separate pack laid out for left-handed writers.

All Tracing & Pre-Writing

Shapes, patterns and colouring for UKG

Children in UKG name the 2D shapes and meet the 3D ones (cube, sphere, cone and cylinder), continue harder repeating patterns, and colour by number to practise reading numerals. Colour mixing adds a little science to the art table.

How to use UKG Worksheets at home and in class

At home, read with your child every day, even for five minutes, and use the phonics sheets as the practice that follows the reading, not a replacement for it. Say the sounds, not the letter names, when blending: /c/ /a/ /t/, not see-ay-tee. For maths, let your child use real objects such as buttons or spoons beside the sheet until the sums feel easy.

In class, UKG teachers often run the word-family and CVC sheets as a weekly cycle: introduce a word family on Monday, build words with the mats midweek, and finish with a worksheet on Friday as a quick check. One purchase covers unlimited printing for one classroom.

Towards the end of UKG, number bonds to 10, addition within 10 and a growing set of sight words are the best bridge to Class 1, where children add and subtract to 20 and read short sentences. When your child is ready for that step, the Class 1 maths packs in the Numbers and Maths category carry on from here.

UKG Worksheets: common questions

What is taught in UKG in India?

Most UKG classes cover reading CVC words and simple sight words, writing short words and sentences, numbers 1 to 100, addition and subtraction within 10, time to the hour, 2D and 3D shapes, patterns, and EVS topics such as the body, plants, animals, transport and the seasons. Schools vary in order and pace.

What age is UKG?

UKG (upper kindergarten) is usually for children aged 5 to 6, the year before Class 1. Age cut-offs differ between states and schools. The same age group is in kindergarten in the United States and Year 1 in England.

How do I teach my UKG child to read?

Start with letter sounds, then blend them into three-letter words such as cat, pin and sun. Practise a small set of sight words (the, is, a, I) that cannot be sounded out, and read a short book together every day. The guide on CVC words below explains what to do when blending does not click.

Can a UKG child do addition?

Most children can add within 10 using objects or fingers by the end of UKG. Number bonds, the pairs that make 10, are the foundation, so practise those before moving on to written sums.

Is there a free UKG worksheet?

The free sample is the 12-page Letter A pack. It is aimed at slightly younger children, but it shows the print quality and page layout used across the shop. Enter your email on the free sample page to download it.

Do the worksheets come in A4 size?

Yes. Most packs come in both A4 and US Letter, and each product page lists the sizes and files in the download. Print at Actual size rather than Fit to page so the writing lines keep their spacing.

Can I print the worksheets for my whole class?

Yes. One purchase covers unlimited printing for your own home or for one classroom. Sharing the file with other teachers or other schools needs its own purchase.
