Inside Outside Worksheets

Preschool is the time when we really try to help youngsters better understand the world around them. As teachers our goal is to help them form a sense of confidence with communicating with others. When we are describing things, we not only need to describe those things, but we need to describe their surroundings and location. Positional words are a huge help to communicate this to others. We often rely on these words when we are forming a comparison. The first two words that come to mind are related to a things they are found within. These worksheets help students understand the positional concepts of being inside, outside, or between other objects.

What is Meant by Inside and Outside?

Girl Inside - Boy Outside

We are aware of so many definitions and so many positions that we use in everyday life. Up, down, left, right, backward, forward, and so many more. Just like these definitions, there are a few other definitions we need to keep in our minds as well. Let's take a look at those, shall we?


Let us first take an example. Consider that there's a room and you are in there. Five minutes later, your mom calls you and you go to see what she needs. After leaving your room, you realize that she wasn't in the room next to yours. Instead, she was in the last room of the hall. So, you go to her, see what she needs and come back to your room.


Here's the fun part, you just learnt what inside, outside and between is! Let us repeat, see when you were in your room, you were INSIDE. When you heard your mom call and to respond to her, you came OUTSIDE the room. And the room in the middle of yours and your mom's room was BETWEEN the rooms. Wasn't this fun to learn? You'll learn more with us!


These are positional words. They describe the location of a person or an object. We first determine what object we are focused on. That can be considered the container. We then focus on the person or object and where it is located in relation to the container. If the person or object is found within the container, they are inside. If they are not in that container, they are outside.
