We are working on an important skill needed for classroom work. It’s called figure ground. This skill allows you to locate specific items within a busy background. Mastering this skill helps students focus and find things within a busy worksheet or focus in on something specific when looking at a busy chalkboard - make sense?! There’s worksheets provided below to find hidden figures within a busy background. Let’s see if you can you find them all?!

Ways to Modify:
-Take turns with your child finding the hidden items; help them locate the item by playing the “hot, cold game”…once they’re close to the item let them know they’re getting hot!
-Go through the first worksheet and point out each hidden figure; now try to let him/her find the items all on their own for the second worksheet
-Brightly color or circle the items you find as you go - it will help your eyes find the new spots to look that aren’t highlighted yet
