Practice that builds confidence

What children learn

These Position Practice Activities help Nursery, LKG and UKG children understand where things are in relation to themselves and to other objects. Children practise words such as above, below, between, before, after, in front, behind, inside, outside, left and right.

The printable activities use familiar pictures, tracing, matching, circling, colouring and simple direction-following tasks. They are designed to build everyday maths and language vocabulary through clear visual comparisons.

Position words help young children describe space clearly: the bird is above the tree, the ball is below the table, the child is between two chairs, or the toy is inside the box. These worksheets move from simple visual choices to slightly richer tasks where children identify before and after, in front and behind, facing left and right, and left and right sides.

Skill progression across the pages

Nursery children can begin by pointing, matching and colouring objects that are above, below, inside or outside. LKG children can compare two or three objects using between, before and after. UKG children can follow short directions, such as colour the object on the left or circle the animal facing right. This gradual practice supports early maths, listening comprehension and classroom instruction vocabulary.

A simple parent routine

Use one worksheet with real objects before writing on the page. Put a spoon inside a cup, keep a pencil between two books, or stand a toy behind a box. Ask your child to say the position word aloud, then complete the matching worksheet. For left and right, let the child wear a small band or sticker on the right hand and connect it with the printed direction.

Classroom uses for teachers

Teachers can use these printables during maths readiness lessons, language corners, morning warm-ups or small-group activities. The pages also work well after action games such as “stand behind your chair” or “keep your bag below the table”. Children can complete tasks independently once the vocabulary has been introduced orally.

Common errors to watch for

Children may confuse left and right when the picture is facing them, mix up before and after in a sequence, or use in front and behind from their own viewpoint instead of the object’s position. Encourage them to point first, say the full sentence, and then mark the answer.
