Over and Under Worksheet: Identifying Object Positions

How to use this worksheet

Look at the first picture together and ask your child to describe where one object is in relation to another. Read the two answer choices, 'over' and 'under,' aloud and ask your child which one matches what they see in the picture. Have them tick the correct answer. Continue through the remaining pictures, encouraging your child to point at the picture and explain their reasoning before marking each answer.
