Questions about Paid for the Work
What does the Paid for the Work worksheet cover?
It practices the work a person is paid to do — 2 questions for Kindergarten to Grade 2, all on C3 Framework D2.Eco.6.K-2: Explain how people earn money. The instruction to students is “Draw a line from each worker to the work they are paid for”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
Which C3 Framework indicator does Paid for the Work practice?
D2.Eco.6.K-2, under Economics for Kindergarten to Grade 2. The published indicator reads: “Explain how people earn income.” The worksheet assesses that indicator rather than a paraphrase of it.
What age or grade is this worksheet for?
Paid for the Work is written for Kindergarten to Grade 2, typically ages 7-8. It is one of the sheets on D2.Eco.6.K-2, so it suits any student working at that standard — including older students revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
Does Paid for the Work come with an answer key?
Yes. All 2 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.
How many different versions of Paid for the Work can I print?
25 — one per student, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.
