About this resource
Description
Direction words like up, down, left, right, in front and in back help young children describe where things are, and this which way is that reading comprehension worksheet lets kindergarten students practice those words while they read. Children read a short story about a trip to the park, then answer questions about where each thing in the park can be found.
About This Worksheet
Page one has a bright watercolor picture of a park and a short, easy story. In the story, a red balloon floats up in the sky, a little puddle sits down on the path, a yellow slide is on the left, a metal swing is on the right, a giant tree is in front, and a wooden bench is in back. Page two has five multiple-choice questions with three answer bubbles each. Students look back at the story to find each answer and fill in the best bubble. Use it during guided reading, in a literacy center, with a small group or as homework. Most kindergarten students finish in about ten minutes.
What’s Included
- A one-page story with a full-color park picture
- Five multiple-choice questions about direction and position words
- A complete answer key
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
First, it builds position vocabulary that children need for math, maps and following directions. Second, it teaches readers to go back to the text to find and check an answer. Third, the picture matches every detail in the story, so children can connect the words to what they see and talk about where each object is.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before reading, play a quick game of Simon Says with the words up, down, left, right, front and back. After students finish the which way is that reading comprehension worksheet, ask them to point to each object in the picture and say which way it is. For more practice, use this kindergarten following directions worksheet idea: hide a toy and give clues using the same position words.
