How do you explain the position of an object? Isn't math exceedingly difficult? Well, there are a few definitions and rules in math that make the subject very interesting and not at all boring. So, do you know what positions are? Let us take a look, shall we? Position in math refers to the space that is occupied by an object with respect to another object, meaning wherever something is placed, that will be its position. There are three types of positions in math: First - An object that is placed ahead or at the top of all other values is known as the first position. Middle - Objects that are placed between two other positions are known as middle positions. Last - An object that is placed at the bottom or at the end of all other values is known as the last value.

Being able to properly describe the position of an object relative to another object is a critical preschool skill. Many students who are educationally stimulated at home will already have this skill down pat the first day they come to preschool. For students that struggle with this, we highly suggest introducing this skill with things that they can touch and feel. These worksheets explain how to compare the relative positions of different objects by using simple pictures.
