Parts of a Book Labeling

About this worksheet

A single labeling task for kindergarten, built around a picture of three books: a blue front cover, a green back cover, and a book open to its title page. Students write a part of the book on the line next to each letter, A to F, using a word bank of Front Cover, Back Cover, Title, Title Page, Author, and Illustrator. It targets Common Core RI.K.5 and touches RI.K.6 through the author and illustrator labels. The answer key gives the part for each letter, from A for Front Cover to F for Title Page.

Curriculum objectives covered

RI.K.5

“Identify the front cover, back cover, and title page of a book.”

Labels A, E, and F: the front cover, the back cover, and the title page.

RI.K.6

“Name the author and illustrator of a text and define the role of each in presenting the ideas or information in a text.”

Labels C and D point to the two name bars on the front cover. No names are printed, so the roles need to come from your talk about a real book.

What's inside this worksheet

Word Bank

Six terms in a table: Back Cover, Illustrator, Title Page, Title, Front Cover, and Author.

Book Picture

Arrows from A to F point at the three books. A, B, C, and D all land on the blue front cover, E on the green back cover, and F on the open title page.

Answer Key

A is the front cover, B the title, C the author, D the illustrator, E the back cover, and F the title page.

How teachers use it

Real book first

Hold up a class picture book and point to each part before you hand out the sheet. Students then look for the same spots on the drawing.

Title or title page

Title and Title Page get mixed up most. Explain that the title is the name, and the title page is the inside page where the name appears again.

Author or illustrator

C and D point to two blank bars under the cover picture, and nothing on the drawing tells them apart. Tell students the author usually comes first, as the key expects, or accept either order.
