These activity sheets give your kindergarten students practice in following directions by coloring simple pictures.

How to Follow Directions By Coloring? One of the toughest tasks for parents and teachers is to make the kids follow directions. It is difficult to gain their attention and make them understand each and every part of the directions. But with coloring, the task is slightly easier. Here are a few things that can help you! Request the child their attention, and the maximum results can be achieved once you are in the line of sight of the kid. Try to minimize the distractions once you have the kids' attention. It is better to do this before asking the child for their attention. Turn off the television and put away the toys. Always try to talk slowly and use a low-pitch for the child's maximum understanding. After you say something, give a two to seven-second wait time as it helps the child effectively process what you said. Ask the child to repeat what you said to know if the child heard what you said or not. Adopt a tone of telling and avoid using the question tone. Number the directions as it helps kids remember the instructions. Once your kid completes a task by following the instructions, do not forget to praise and celebrate. The more praise your child gets, the better they will perform the next time!

Students will be given a horizontal (left to right) row of objects. They will then be told how to color those objects based on sides of the row. The concepts include understanding first and last sides of the row. If they are told to color the first side of the row, they should start with the left-most side of the row. If they are told to color the last side of the row, they will start to color with the right-most object of the row. These worksheets allow students to practice following directions by coloring a specified number of simple pictures according to the instructions. These worksheets assure that students must read directions very carefully.
