Fill In The Shape

Worksheet Description

This worksheet displays three sets of images, each with a series of shapes or pictures. The instructions ask the student to color the shape that is next to the image in each set. For instance, in the first set, the student must identify and color the shape directly next to the basketball. Each set contains three items in a row, with the middle item being a consistent image, such as a basketball, sunflower, or flower, and varying shapes on either side.

The worksheet is designed to teach students about the concept of “next to,” a spatial relationship that indicates the position of objects in immediate proximity to one another. By coloring the shape that is next to a central image, children can develop an understanding of positional words and their meanings. This activity also enhances fine motor skills through the act of coloring within the lines. Furthermore, the worksheet allows students to practice following instructions and reinforces the recognition of different shapes and common objects.
