Cars and Devices

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is designed to help students understand the concepts of spatial awareness, specifically the difference between ‘near’ and ‘far’. At the top, there is a set of vehicles with some depicted smaller and grouped together to appear ‘far away’, and the instruction is to circle these. In the second activity, there are images of three devices placed close to one another, and students are instructed to color these devices. There is a space at the top for students to write their names, making the sheet personal to each student.

The worksheet aims to teach students how to visually perceive and differentiate distances, with ‘near’ represented by larger, more detailed images and ‘far’ represented by smaller, less detailed images. By circling the vehicles that are ‘far away’, students practice identifying objects that appear smaller as being at a greater distance. Coloring the ‘near’ devices helps to reinforce the idea that objects with clearer and larger appearances are closer. This visual discrimination skill is foundational for understanding spatial relationships in real-world contexts and is typically targeted towards young children in early education settings.
