This fun and interactive activity provides the opportunity for your students to practise giving directions and locating objects using positional language.

Designed to be a barrier game played with a partner, your students will take on the role of the ‘describer’ who describes where different objects are located; and the ‘builder’ who takes on the role of building the picture based on the directions given by their partner. Once all directions have been given students can compare their mats to see how accurate they were at giving and following directions.

This resource includes:

1. Flip and Describe mats (with a word bank and question cards to match).
2. Picture Builder mats (with object cards to match).

Choose from the following themes:

1. Dinosaur Dig
2. Under the Sea
3. At the Farm
4. Outer Space
5. In the House
6. At the River

We recommend printing the templates on thick card for durability. Please note that the cards will need to be cut out prior to the lesson.
