How to use this sheet
- Play a game first: put a toy above, below, beside or behind a box and have the child say where it is.
- Read each direction aloud and let the child point to the place before drawing.
- For maps and grids, have the child move a finger along the route as they read the steps.
Common mistakes
- Mixing up left and right. Have the child hold up their left hand: the fingers and thumb make an L.
- Confusing "in front of" and "behind" for things that face a different way in the picture.
- Counting the starting square as the first step on a grid.
