Spatial Awareness

Students will be able to understand and use basic positional language, such as "in," "out," "on," "under," "above," and "below." Students will be able to identify and sort shapes based on their attributes, such as size, color, and position. Students will be able to use spatial reasoning to solve simple puzzles and problems, such as finding the missing piece of a puzzle or figuring out how to fit objects into a container. Students will be able to build and create with blocks and other manipulatives, using spatial awareness to stack, balance, and fit objects together. Students will be able to navigate through space by following simple directions, such as walking around obstacles or going through a tunnel. Students will be able to use their bodies to explore and understand different spatial relationships, such as lying down to see what the world looks like from a different perspective.
