About this resource
Description
Prepositions are the small words that show how two things are placed, like on, under and behind. This Showing Relationships Prepositions activity helps kindergarten and 1st grade students look closely at a picture and name where one object is compared to another.
In Showing Relationships, children match 12 picture cards to 6 preposition word cards: on, under, above, next to, in front of and behind. Each picture shows a red ball and a wooden crate, and every picture was placed so that only one word tells where the ball is. Children find two pictures for each word and say a sentence such as “The ball is under the crate.” Print the cards one-sided and make a few straight cuts on the dashed lines. A 1st grade practice page asks students to read four sentences and draw the ball in the right place.
What’s Included
- A colorful cover page
- A How to Use page with simple steps and prep tips
- 12 ball and crate picture cards
- 6 preposition word cards
- A 1st grade read-and-draw practice worksheet
- A card answer key and a practice answer key
Why This Activity Helps Kids
- Matching pictures to words gives every preposition a clear meaning children can see.
- Saying full sentences builds the oral language children need for reading and writing.
- Drawing the ball in the right place shows that students can use each preposition on their own.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Use this kindergarten prepositions activity at a literacy center, with a partner or in a small group. After the cards, ask children to put a crayon on, under or next to a book and describe it, just like the original activity. Send the practice page home for extra review. Return to this Showing Relationships Prepositions activity whenever students need fun practice with position words.
