Designed by Sally of Elementary Matters

Directions: Run off on card stock. Laminate for

durability. Cut out apples and cards.
If the card tells about what a producer does, put
it on the Producer apple.
If the card tells about what a consumer does, put
it on the Consumer apple.

Consumer – Someone who buys and uses goods.

Producer – Someone who makes or grows
something.
Encourage plenty of conversation as the children
work through this sorting game.
The conversation is what deepens the
understanding!
Warning: there are several cards that could
refer to a consumer OR a producer. If the child
can defend his thinking, he is correct!
