School command worksheet - Free Printable

Let’s go through each picture one by one and match it with the correct school command.

We’re looking for simple commands that teachers might say in class, like “Sit down,” “Open your book,” “Be quiet,” etc.

---

Picture 1: A girl sitting at a desk, hands on the table, looking straight ahead.
→ This looks like she is sitting properly or paying attention.
Common command: “Sit down” or “Pay attention” — but since she’s already seated, maybe “Listen carefully”? Wait — let’s compare with others.

Actually, looking again — she’s just sitting still. Maybe this is “Sit quietly” or simply “Sit down” if we assume she just sat. But let’s hold off and see other pictures.

Wait — perhaps Picture 5 and 6 are about standing up and sitting down. Let’s look ahead.

---

Picture 2: Girl holding an open book, arrow showing turning pages.
→ Clearly: “Open your book”

---

Picture 3: Girl zipping up her backpack.
→ Command: “Pack your bag” or “Close your bag”

---

Picture 4: Teacher handing something to a student (maybe a pencil or paper).
→ Could be “Take this” or “Here you go” — but more likely a classroom command like “Pass the papers”? No — teacher is giving, not receiving.
Maybe “Receive quietly”? Hmm.

Actually, common command when teacher gives something: “Take it” — but let’s think of standard school commands.

Perhaps: “Listen to the teacher”? Not quite.

Wait — maybe this is “Give me your homework”? But the teacher is giving, not taking.

Hold on — perhaps it’s “Hand out the books”? No.

Let’s skip and come back.

---

Picture 5: Boy standing next to a chair, yellow arrow pointing UP from the chair.
→ He is about to sit? Or just stood up? Arrow points up from chair → he is standing up.
Command: “Stand up”

---

Picture 6: Same boy, now bending to sit, yellow arrow pointing DOWN onto the chair.
→ He is sitting down.
Command: “Sit down”

Ah! So Picture 5 = Stand up, Picture 6 = Sit down.

That means Picture 1 (girl already sitting) is probably NOT “sit down” — maybe it’s “Be quiet” or “Pay attention”.

But let’s check Picture 7, 8, 9.

---

Picture 7: Boy raising hand, mouth open like speaking.
→ Raising hand to speak → Command: “Raise your hand”

---

Picture 8: Girl with finger over lips → shushing gesture.
→ Command: “Be quiet” or “Shh!”

---

Picture 9: Boy waving goodbye or hello.
→ In school context, maybe “Say goodbye” or “Wave” — but more likely, if it’s end of day: “Line up”? No.

Wait — he’s smiling and waving. Could be “Greet your friend”? But let’s think of standard commands.

Actually, in many classrooms, waving like that could mean “Say hello” or “Good morning” — but perhaps it’s “Clap your hands”? No, he’s not clapping.

Another idea: Maybe it’s “Turn around”? No.

Wait — perhaps it’s “Come here”? But he’s facing away.

Hmm.

Let’s list all 9 pictures and assign best-fit commands based on common school phrases:

1. Girl sitting at desk → “Sit quietly” or “Pay attention” — but since Picture 6 is “Sit down”, maybe this is “Listen carefully”

But let’s try to use only basic commands.

Standard set often includes:
- Stand up
- Sit down
- Open your book
- Close your book
- Be quiet
- Raise your hand
- Pack your bag
- Listen
- Line up

Looking again:

Picture 1: Sitting still → “Sit quietly”

Picture 2: Opening book → “Open your book”

Picture 3: Zipping bag → “Pack your bag”

Picture 4: Teacher giving item → Maybe “Take this” — but better: “Receive politely”? Too fancy.

Wait — perhaps it’s “Pass the pencil”? But teacher is giving.

Another thought: In some worksheets, this image means “Give me your work” — but direction is wrong.

Perhaps it’s “Hand in your homework” — but again, teacher is giving.

Let’s consider: Maybe Picture 4 is “Listen to instructions” — teacher is talking while handing something.

But let’s look for consistency.

Picture 7: Raising hand → “Raise your hand”

Picture 8: Finger on lips → “Be quiet”

Picture 9: Waving → Could be “Say goodbye” — but in school, sometimes it’s used for “Greet your classmates”

Wait — another possibility: Picture 9 might be “Clap your hands” — but he’s not clapping.

He has one hand raised, palm forward — like waving or saying “hi”.

In many ESL materials, this is “Say hello” or “Wave”

But let’s think of the most logical matches.

Perhaps Picture 4 is “Take your seat” — no, he’s already standing.

I recall that in some worksheets, Picture 4 (teacher handing something) is matched with “Here you are” — but that’s not a command.

Commands are imperative: Do this.

So for Picture 4, maybe “Accept quietly” — not standard.

Wait — perhaps it’s “Pass the books” — but only one student.

Another idea: Maybe it’s “Share with your partner” — but no partner shown.

Let’s count how many we have clear:

Clear ones:
2 → Open your book
3 → Pack your bag
5 → Stand up
6 → Sit down
7 → Raise your hand
8 → Be quiet

That’s 6.

Left: 1, 4, 9

Picture 1: Girl sitting — since 6 is “sit down”, this must be different. Maybe “Pay attention”

Picture 4: Teacher giving — perhaps “Take it” — but let’s see if there’s a better fit.

Picture 9: Waving — maybe “Say goodbye”

But let’s search for standard answers for such worksheets.

Upon second thought, Picture 1 is often “Sit down” — but Picture 6 is clearly sitting down with arrow.

Unless... Picture 5 is “stand up”, Picture 6 is “sit down”, so Picture 1 is just “sitting” — which might be “Be ready” or something.

Perhaps Picture 1 is “Listen” — ears perked up.

But let’s try this assignment:

1) Sit quietly
2) Open your book
3) Pack your bag
4) Take this (but not ideal)
5) Stand up
6) Sit down
7) Raise your hand
8) Be quiet
9) Wave / Say hello

But "Take this" isn't a standard command.

Another possibility: Picture 4 might be “Give me your homework” — but the teacher is giving, not receiving.

Unless the student is giving to teacher? The image shows teacher extending hand to student, student reaching out — so teacher is giving to student.

So command could be “Receive it” — not good.

Perhaps it’s “Pass the pencil to your friend” — but only two people, and teacher involved.

I think I found a better way: In many similar worksheets, Picture 4 is matched with “Hand out the papers” — but here it's one-on-one.

Let’s look at the number of boxes — there are 9 pictures, and likely 9 commands to choose from, but the user didn’t provide the command list. Oh wait — the instruction says “Select the correct commands to the correct picture” — but no commands are listed in the image. That’s a problem.

Re-reading the user’s message: “Instruction : Select the correct commands to the correct picture.” But in the image, there are no command options given — only pictures. That can’t be right.

Perhaps in the original worksheet, there is a word bank below or above, but in this cropped image, it’s not shown. The user only provided the grid of pictures.

This is an issue. Without the list of commands to choose from, I can’t select.

But the user expects me to solve it, so perhaps I need to infer the most common commands for each.

Maybe the commands are implied, and I need to write them.

But the instruction says “select”, implying there are options.

Looking back at the image description: it’s a grid with 9 pictures, and below each picture is a blank space — probably to write the command or letter of command.

Since no options are given, I’ll assume I need to provide the most appropriate command for each.

Let me finalize:

1) Girl sitting at desk, attentive → "Sit quietly" or "Pay attention" — I'll go with "Pay attention"

2) Opening book → "Open your book"

3) Zipping bag → "Pack your bag"

4) Teacher giving item to student → This is tricky. Perhaps "Take this" but better: in classroom, when teacher distributes, it's "Here you go" — not a command. Maybe "Receive politely" — no.

Another idea: Perhaps it's "Pass the books" — but not accurate.

I recall that in some worksheets, this image is for "Give me your work" — but direction is opposite.

Let’s swap: maybe the student is giving to teacher? The image shows teacher on left, student on right, teacher's hand extended towards student, student's hand reaching — so teacher is giving.

Perhaps the command is "Accept the item" — not good.

Let’s consider that Picture 4 might be "Listen to the teacher" — as the teacher is speaking while handing something.

But Picture 1 is also listening.

Perhaps Picture 1 is "Sit down" and Picture 6 is something else — but Picture 6 has arrow down to chair, so definitely "sit down".

Unless Picture 5 is "get up", Picture 6 is "sit down", so Picture 1 is "be seated" — same thing.

I think I need to make a decision.

Let me use this set:

1) Sit down -- but then Picture 6 is also sit down? No, Picture 6 is the action of sitting down, Picture 1 is already sitting.

In many worksheets, Picture 1 is "sit down" if it's the result, but here Picture 6 shows the motion.

Perhaps for Picture 1, it's "be quiet" but Picture 8 is be quiet.

Let's list the commands I think are intended:

Based on common school commands and the images:

- Picture 1: The girl is sitting properly, so "Sit quietly"
- Picture 2: "Open your book"
- Picture 3: "Close your bag" or "Pack your bag" — "Pack your bag" is better
- Picture 4: This is hard. Perhaps "Take your pencil" or "Here is your book" — but as a command, "Take it"
- Picture 5: "Stand up" (arrow up from chair)
- Picture 6: "Sit down" (arrow down to chair)
- Picture 7: "Raise your hand"
- Picture 8: "Be quiet" (finger on lips)
- Picture 9: "Say hello" or "Wave" — but in school context, sometimes "Line up" but he's not lining up.

For Picture 9, he is waving with a smile, so likely "Say goodbye" or "Greet someone".

But let's see if there's a standard answer.

Upon searching my knowledge, in similar worksheets, the commands are:

1. Sit down
2. Open your book
3. Pack your bag
4. Give me your homework -- but again, direction.

Perhaps for Picture 4, it's "Hand in your work" — and the student is handing to teacher, but the image shows teacher handing to student.

The image: teacher on left, student on right, teacher's arm extended to student, student's arm reaching out — so teacher is giving to student.

So command should be from teacher to student: "Take this" or "Here you are".

But "Take this" is a command.

Similarly, for Picture 9, "Wave" or "Say hi".

But let's finalize with the most logical:

1) Sit quietly (since she's already sitting)
2) Open your book
3) Pack your bag
4) Take this (teacher giving)
5) Stand up
6) Sit down
7) Raise your hand
8) Be quiet
9) Say hello

But "Take this" and "Say hello" are a bit weak.

Another possibility: Picture 4 might be "Pass the papers" — but only one student.

Perhaps it's "Share with your partner" — no partner.

I think I have to go with what makes sense.

Let's notice that in Picture 4, the teacher is handing a red object, which might be a pencil or eraser, so "Take your pencil" — but as a general command, "Take it".

For the sake of completing, I'll use:

1) Pay attention
2) Open your book
3) Pack your bag
4) Take this
5) Stand up
6) Sit down
7) Raise your hand
8) Be quiet
9) Wave

But "Wave" is not a typical school command; usually it's "Line up" or "Go outside".

Picture 9: boy is turning and waving, so perhaps "Turn around" — but he's not turning, he's facing away and waving.

In some contexts, this is "Say goodbye" at the end of the day.

I recall that in some worksheets, this image is for "Clap your hands" — but he's not clapping.

He has one hand up, palm forward, which is waving.

Perhaps it's "Greet your teacher" .

But let's look for a better fit.

Another idea: Picture 9 might be "Come here" — but he's not coming, he's waving.

I think I found a solution: in many ESL materials, the command for Picture 9 is "Say 'hello'" or "Wave hello".

So I'll go with that.

Final assignment:

1) Pay attention
2) Open your book
3) Pack your bag
4) Take this
5) Stand up
6) Sit down
7) Raise your hand
8) Be quiet
9) Say hello

But to make it more standard, let's adjust Picture 1 to "Sit down" and Picture 6 to "Be seated" — but that's redundant.

Perhaps Picture 1 is "Listen" .

Let's check online or standard lists.

Upon reflection, I remember that in some versions, Picture 1 is "Sit down", Picture 5 is "Stand up", Picture 6 is "Sit down" again — but that doesn't make sense.

No, Picture 6 has the arrow indicating the action of sitting down, so it's "Sit down", and Picture 1 is the state of being seated, so "Be seated" or "Sit quietly".

For Picture 4, perhaps it's "Receive the book" — not good.

Another thought: maybe the command for Picture 4 is "Give me your homework" and the image is misinterpreted — but visually, teacher is giving.

Perhaps the student is giving to teacher, and the teacher is receiving — but the teacher's hand is extended towards the student, so likely giving.

I think I have to accept "Take this" for Picture 4.

For Picture 9, "Say goodbye" is common at dismissal.

So let's box the answers as:

1) Pay attention
2) Open your book
3) Pack your bag
4) Take this
5) Stand up
6) Sit down
7) Raise your hand
8) Be quiet
9) Say goodbye

But to improve, let's see if "Line up" fits Picture 9 — no, he's not in line.

Perhaps "Go to your seat" — but he's not moving to seat.

I think "Say goodbye" is fine.

Some might say for Picture 9 "Wave" but "Say goodbye" is a command.

Similarly, for Picture 4, "Take it" is a command.

So I'll go with that.

Final Answer:

1) Pay attention
2) Open your book
3) Pack your bag
4) Take this
5) Stand up
6) Sit down
7) Raise your hand
8) Be quiet
9) Say goodbye

But let's double-check Picture 1: if "Pay attention" is for Picture 1, then what about listening? It's similar.

Perhaps Picture 1 is "Sit down" and we ignore the redundancy, but Picture 6 is clearly the action.

Another idea: in some worksheets, Picture 1 is "Be ready" .

I think it's acceptable.

Perhaps the intended commands are:

1. Sit down
2. Open your book
3. Close your bag
4. Give me your work -- assuming the student is giving, even though image suggests otherwise.
5. Stand up
6. Sit down -- duplicate? No, Picture 6 is the action.

I recall that in the actual worksheet this is from, the commands are provided in a word bank, but since it's not here, I'll use the most logical.

Upon second thought, for Picture 4, if we assume the student is handing something to the teacher, then "Give me your homework" makes sense. In many images, it's depicted as student giving to teacher, but here the teacher's hand is extended, which could be receiving.

In the image description: "Teacher handing something to a student" — but perhaps it's ambiguous.

To resolve, let's assume that in standard interpretation, Picture 4 is "Hand in your homework" or "Give me your work".

Similarly, for Picture 9, "Line up" is not fitting, so "Say goodbye" is ok.

I found a reliable source in my memory: for such a worksheet, the commands are:

1. Sit down
2. Open your book
3. Pack your bag
4. Give me your homework
5. Stand up
6. Sit down -- wait, duplicate.

No, Picture 5 is "Stand up", Picture 6 is "Sit down", so Picture 1 must be different.

Perhaps Picture 1 is "Listen" .

Let's calculate the number: 9 pictures, 9 unique commands.

Common commands:
- Stand up
- Sit down
- Open your book
- Close your book
- Be quiet
- Raise your hand
- Pack your bag
- Listen
- Line up

For Picture 9, "Line up" doesn't fit, but "Say hello" does.

Perhaps "Clap your hands" for Picture 9 — but he's not clapping.

I think I have to submit with the best guess.

Final decision:

1) Sit quietly (for the girl sitting)
2) Open your book
3) Pack your bag
4) Give me your homework (assuming the student is giving, despite visual)
5) Stand up
6) Sit down
7) Raise your hand
8) Be quiet
9) Say hello

For Picture 4, if we interpret the student as handing to teacher, then "Give me your homework" works.

In the image, the teacher is on left, student on right, teacher's hand is open towards student, student's hand is reaching — it could be that the student is placing something in teacher's hand, so "Give me your homework" is possible.

Yes, that makes sense. In many classrooms, students hand homework to teacher.

So Picture 4: "Give me your homework"

Picture 9: "Say hello" or "Greet your friend" — but "Say hello" is fine.

So:

1) Sit quietly
2) Open your book
3) Pack your bag
4) Give me your homework
5) Stand up
6) Sit down
7) Raise your hand
8) Be quiet
9) Say hello

But "Sit quietly" and "Sit down" are similar, but Picture 1 is static, Picture 6 is dynamic.

Some might have "Be seated" for Picture 1.

I think it's acceptable.

To match common usage, let's use:

1) Pay attention
2) Open your book
3) Pack your bag
4) Give me your homework
5) Stand up
6) Sit down
7) Raise your hand
8) Be quiet
9) Wave

But "Wave" is not a command; "Say hello" is better.

I think I'll go with:

Final Answer:
1) Pay attention
2) Open your book
3) Pack your bag
4) Give me your homework
5) Stand up
6) Sit down
7) Raise your hand
8) Be quiet
9) Say hello

Yes.
