On and Under Worksheet: Table Placement Fun!

How to use this worksheet

Cut out the small pictures at the bottom of the page together, keeping them in a loose pile within reach. Read the instruction for the first section aloud, telling your child whether the object should go on top of or underneath the table in the picture. Have your child choose the matching picture, glue it in the correct position, and say the word 'on' or 'under' out loud as they place it. Continue through each section of the page, checking together that each object ended up in the position the instruction described.
