Directional Shapes

Directional Shapes Worksheet

Worksheet Description

This worksheet presents various shapes paired with instructions to color them based on their position relative to the page; either on the left or the right side. The shapes include a square, an octagon, a circle, a rectangle, a triangle, and a star, and each is to be colored with a specific color as instructed. Below the shapes, there’s a writing practice section with the words “left” and “right,” where students can trace over the words. This worksheet combines coloring with handwriting practice related to the concept of direction.

The worksheet aims to teach students about the spatial concepts of left and right. By associating each side with a color and a shape, the activity helps to reinforce the understanding of directionality. The coloring aspect engages fine motor skills, while the tracing exercise at the bottom reinforces the written concept of left and right. This multi-faceted approach is designed to cater to different learning styles and to solidify the students’ grasp of directional concepts.
