Die-cuts - Great for Teaching Positional Vocabulary


Have children manipulate the die-cuts to demonstrate their understanding of positional vocabulary. Below is a child's example showing the meaning of the positional word - between.
Begin by completing examples together on chart paper.   On the class chart below we used gingerbread men, butterflies and apples.  Picture/word cards were also used for scaffolding and reference.  Picture/ word cards are included in this post.





An assortment of die-cuts are needed for the class example and for students' individual papers.
Picture/Word Cards used in the class example
Word Cards - Use when scaffolding isn't needed or different die-cuts will be used.
Additional Activity - Use as whole class or individual practice
