Spot the Difference Observation Notes

Found a difference? Describe what changed instead of only pointing to it. Compare the same place in Picture A and Picture B, then use the blank chart to record what you saw. This sheet does not contain answers to any published puzzle.

Scan, compare, describe

  1. Start at the top left. Compare both pictures across one row, then move down.
  2. When a spot looks different, name where it is in each picture.
  3. Write or draw what you see in A and B; explain the change in the last column.
  4. Check your description by looking at the same spot in both pictures again.

Imagine two made-up scenes: a red scarf becomes blue (color); a second cloud appears in B (added object) or disappears from B (missing object); or a bicycle moves from beside a tree to beside a bench (position). These are text-only examples, not clues to a published picture.
