Australian Curriculum Version 9 Says:
Describe the position and location of themselves and objects in relation to other people and objects within a familiar space.
What this means
The student can use mathematical language (prepositions) to describe location, e.g. “the train is next to the station” or e.g. “the teddy is on/above the chair.”
Tips
- Use real-life items. It can be difficult to describe and explain prepositions if they are shown on paper.
- Photograph students in the playground standing on top of, sitting above…
- Give instructions to place a pencil under the chair, behind the chair, beside the chair…
