FIND THE OBJECT
 
Submitted by Elizabeth Gawne ( Morotsuka Village BOE) 
Target Group
: 5-6th year 
Difficulty Level
: Fundamentals 
Activity Objective: 
To practice location words (under, over, beside) 
Procedure: 
One student volunteers and must close their eyes while I hide an object. After the object is hidden, 
they open their eyes and must find the object only by listening to my instructions (e.g.: "It is under 
the desk"). They say "Where is it?" to practice the question word "where," and have only three 
chances to find it (three strikes and they are out). This is used to keep the students from randomly 
searching, as well as not simply going to the object because they know the object name, as they 
have to utilise the location words.
