Opposite Words Illustrated with Simple Shapes

Opposites are pairs of words which have the meanings opposed to each other. Opposites are very basic concepts for preschoolers. Understanding these concepts helps kids learn to compare different things, and improve their ability of describing things using rich vocabularies.

This worksheet provides several opposite words, illustrated with simple shapes that help kids understand at a very early age. The words include: big vs small, long vs short, full vs short, thick vs thin, top vs bottom, first vs last, left vs right, up vs down, and high vs low. Parents could use this worksheet to teach their kids these opposite words. The visual learning with the images of the two opposite words will push the process of understanding the abstract concept. When kids understand and start to use the opposite words, they will improve their communication ability, and prepare themselves for language learning and social life in the future.
