'Position' Stories

We have been using positional language in Maths and especially learning to tell our Left from our  Right, which is not easy!!

Here are some of these Maths words incorporated in some fabulous fictional stories.

I broke Mum's favourite tin so I hid right of the tree then I saw Mum so I went left of the tree. Then I sneakily went past and hid in between two couches but I heard Mum say "Come out Tyla!" After I tiptoed under my bed and jumped over the couches. Then I came out and said to Mum "Sorry Mum". "It's alright" Mum said. I went behind the table onto the couch and sat beside Mum.Then I went in front of Mum and gave her a big hug.

My Mum told me to look after the Year R children with Mrs Noodle in Red class. We played hide and seek. I was the seeker. I looked beside the play house, behind the curtains, I looked under the table and in front of Mrs Noodle. I found you! I said to Bella. But then the bell rang, everybody came and sat on the mat. I think everybody had a great time at school.

I was in the jungle with Tyla and Jade. We were playing Hide and Seek. I hid between two logs with Jade. Tyla was counting. "You found us" I was in. Jade hid behind a tall tree and Tyla hid between two bushes. I found Jade first. I hid in the tallest, greenest grass ever. Tyla hid behind a pukeko. Boo! Jade said to Tyla. Tyla said ... "Wow! Look at the tall grass." Tyla whispered Crystal might be behind that grass. But Tyla forgot. I got tired behind that grass. Tyla found me behind the grass. I woke up. Tyla and Jade forgot to hide behind something. I shouted " you need to hide behind something!" They didn't listen to me because... they were asleep. It was night. They were already hidden. They hid behind the grass. I whispered " Are they behind, beside, between or in front?"
