Where Are the Shapes? Position Worksheet

Kindergarten Math

English Shape Recognition Logic & Puzzles 6 years old

Where Are the Shapes? is a one-page kindergarten math worksheet for shape recognition and position words. The page shows one shared board with six shapes, then asks children to identify the shape below an oval, above a rectangle, left of a hexagon, and right of a circle.

At age 6, many children can name a circle or square in isolation, yet still stall when a shape clue includes direction. Practice with above, below, left of, and right of helps children connect visual scanning, shape names, and early math language during a short off-screen moment.

A parent or teacher can sit beside the child, point to the reference shape named in each prompt, and ask, “Which shape is in that spot?” The child can say the answer first, then write the matching shape name in the correct field.

The worksheet keeps every question on the same shape board, so the child does not need to relearn a new picture for each prompt. Clear models and writing spaces make the page useful for quick practice, small-group review, or a calm take-home activity.
