In, on and under game

Materials: tables, chairs, a large box, toys or stick puppets.
Preparation: If possible, take students to work in a large space outside the classroom. If not, clear a place in the middle of your classroom.
Directions: Place a table, a chair and the box in the middle of your workspace. Have students sit in a circle around the objects.
Hold up the toys or puppets and put them in, on and under the objects, describing where are they.
T: She is in the chair. She is in the box. She is under the table.
Give instructions to individual students to place themselves in different places.
T: Sit under the table. Sit on the chair. Sit in the box.
Have some students give instructions to others.
Then seat students in the middle of the workspace. Arrange several tables, chairs and the box around students to make an obstacle course. Direct students one by one to go through the obstacle course.
T: In the box. Under the table. On the chair.
After each instruction, make sure students go correctly through the obstacle course. Finally, if it is safe to do so, divide the class into teams, set up enough obstacle courses with tables, chairs and boxes and have students race.
