About this resource
Description
Position words like above, below and behind help children follow directions and describe the world around them. This position words butterfly activity helps 1st Grade and 2nd Grade students look closely at where a butterfly is and write the word that tells its position.
The pack has 10 picture cards. Each picture shows a butterfly and an everyday object: a table, a box, a tree, a chair or a flower pot. Every object appears on two cards with the butterfly in a different place, so children must study the picture, not just the object. Children pick a card, say where the butterfly is, and write the position word from the word box to finish the sentence on the recording sheet. This butterfly prepositions game works well in a literacy center, a math center or a small group.
What’s Included
- A How to Use page with steps and prep tips
- 10 butterfly picture cards on 2 sheets
- A recording sheet with a position word box
- A 1st Grade practice worksheet: circle the preposition
- A recording sheet answer key and a practice answer key
Why Kids Love It
- Bright butterfly pictures make position words easy to see.
- Matching pairs of cards turn careful looking into a fun challenge.
- Writing full sentences builds reading and writing skills at the same time.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Use the position words butterfly activity as a center, then play a quick hiding game: hide a small toy and have children tell where it is with a position word. At home, families can place a stuffed animal above, below or behind things around the house and ask children to describe its spot in a full sentence. Keep the cards in a zip-top bag for quick review any time.
