Teaching guide

What students learn

Describe where objects are in the environment using terms like above, below, beside, in front of, and next to.

How to teach it

Read a simple grid map, naming what is above, below, left and right of a landmark, giving the column then row of a square, and following a path (so many squares right and down).

Worked example
The shoes are ___ the bed (down below it).
Answer: under

Generated and checked in code, so it is correct.

Watch out for

Left and right depend on the viewer, and grid squares are read across (column) then up or down (row), not the other way around.
