Positional Reading

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is designed to guide young readers through the proper orientation for reading English text. It visually demonstrates the concept with arrows pointing from left to right and from top to bottom. The main feature is an image of an open book with various sentences. Students are directed to start reading at the star symbol located at the top left and to finish at the “STOP” sign at the bottom right, indicating the conventional path for reading a page.

The worksheet teaches the fundamental skill of navigating written text in the correct order. It emphasizes the standard reading direction for English, training students to begin at the top left of a text and move horizontally to the right, then downwards line by line. This practice is vital for establishing good reading habits and comprehension. The visual cues, such as the star and the stop sign, help to reinforce this reading pattern, making it intuitive for the students to follow.
