Children will need to listen to the instruction read out by the teacher. This will help them to develop their understanding of ‘left’ and ‘right’. Worksheet - I’ve attached both copies, a PDF & an editable Word document. Direction cards - I’ve used these in the woodlands as part of an outdoor learning activity. Children take it in turns to choose 5 instructions. They put sequence them and then tell their partner how to get to a treasure box/x marks the spot. Direction cards - I’ve used these for BlueBot/BeeBot activities. Children sequence direction cards and then give their friend instructions to move BlueBot.
