Location, Direction, and Turns

How the lesson starts: Location, Direction, and Turns

1. Where are Pogo's bones?

   Hi friend! Meet Pogo the puppy. Pogo hid his bones all over the park. Now he can't find them! Let's use place words to help Pogo.

2. Place words

   Place words tell where things are. The bird is above the box. The apple is below the box. The cat is inside the box. The ball is left of it. The star is right of it.

3. Left or right?

   Where is the ball? Find the box first. The ball is on your left hand side. Your left hand makes an L shape! So the ball is left of the box. Watch out! Always look from the box.
