Rich Man and Lazarus Worksheet for Kids (Easy, Medium and Hard)

This Rich Man and Lazarus worksheet comes in three free printable levels, so every class can use it. Easy (ages 4–6): kids circle the right word, circle the number and trace part of the memory verse. Medium (grades K–2): kids fill in eight story facts from a word box. Hard (grades 3–5): kids look up eight answers in Luke 16 and write the memory verse from memory. Each level downloads by itself or with an answer key page.

How to use it

Teach the story first, then hand out the worksheet as review. Pick the level that fits your kids, or print two levels for a class with mixed ages. For pre-readers, read each sentence and both choices out loud and let them circle.

What's on each level

• Easy, ages 4–6: five sentences with two choices to circle (purple, a beggar, the crumbs, the dogs, the angels), two "circle the number" questions (five brethren; two men) and "Moses and the prophets" to trace and copy.
• Medium, grades K–2: a word box and eight fill-in-the-blank facts (purple and fine linen, Lazarus at the gate, the crumbs, the dogs, the angels, comforted, the great gulf, five brethren), plus Luke 16:31 with four missing words.
• Hard, grades 3–5: no word box. Kids read the verse given for each of eight questions and write the answer, write Luke 16:31 with only the first letters given, and answer one "think about it" question.
• Answer keys: every level has one, with a Bible reference for each answer.

Tips

• For the hard level, give each child or pair a King James Bible open to Luke 16.
• Early finishers can try the Rich Man and Lazarus word search, crossword or maze.
