Location Games

Listen Carefully And Answer

In this activity, you will learn about locations in a classroom. Look at the picture. Different children are in different places in the classroom.

One child says: I am here. Near the window.

Another child says: I'm behind you, near the blackboard.

Another child says: Where are you?

A child answers: Here. Right in front of you.

Another child says: Here. On the right of Savita.

Another child says: Here. Second line, second bench.

Another child says: Hi. I'm on the left of Kedar.

Another child says: I am at the back. On the last bench.

Teacher's Note

This game helps children learn where things are in the classroom. In India, children sit in benches in rows. They need to know the words for these positions.

Exam Trick

Remember the position words: in front, behind, left, right, back, near. These words help you describe where someone sits in the classroom.

Points To Remember

Location words tell us where a person or thing is.
In front means before you.
Behind means at the back.
Left and right show sides.
Near means close to something.

Play This Game Outside The Classroom

You can play location games in your garden or in the school playground. Children can hide in different places. Then they tell where they are hiding.

Teacher's Note

This game is fun when children play it outside. In India, many schools have playgrounds. Children can learn about locations while playing.

Exam Trick

When you play outside, use the same location words. This helps you remember them better for your exam.

Points To Remember

You can play location games anywhere.
Outside games make learning fun.
Use the same words always.
Children learn better when they play.
Listen to where other children are.

Play This Game, Calling Out To A Group Of Children Rather Than One Child

Example: Neha, Kapil, Zeenat, where are you? We are on the first floor.

In this version, you call out to many children at once. They answer as a group. This is different from calling one child.

Teacher's Note

Group activities are good for learning. In Indian classrooms, children work in groups often. This helps them speak loudly and clearly.

Exam Trick

Remember: One child = I am. Many children = We are. Use the correct form when answering.

Points To Remember

When one person answers, use I am.
When many people answer, use We are.
Group activities help you speak more.
Children feel brave when friends answer together.
Listen to how the group answers.

Play This Game Asking For Things Instead Of Calling Out To People

Example: Where's Namita's pen? It's on her desk.

In this game, you ask where things are. You do not ask where people are. You ask about books, pens, bags, and other objects.

Teacher's Note

This game teaches children the names of things in the classroom. In India, children have different types of objects in school. They need to know their names and locations.

Exam Trick

Remember: For things, use It's. For people, use He's or She's. The answer changes based on what you ask about.

Points To Remember

You can ask about objects in the classroom.
Things can be on the desk, in the bag, or under the bench.
Use It's when you answer about things.
Location words work for both people and things.
Listen to where the object is.
