To solve this problem, we need to look at the line of animals at the top of the page and count them from left to right to find their position (ordinal number). Then, we match that number to the correct animal in the boxes below.
Step 1: Determine the order of the animals in the top row.
Let's count them starting from the left:
1.
Grasshopper is
1st.
2.
Blue Fly is
2nd.
3.
Purple Spider is
3rd.
4.
Snail is
4th.
5.
Dragonfly is
5th.
6.
Caterpillar is
6th.
7.
Butterfly is
7th.
8.
Ant is
8th.
9.
Ladybug is
9th.
10.
Bee is
10th.
Step 2: Match the animals in the boxes to their ordinal numbers.
*
Left Column:
* The
Snail is in the 4th spot. So, it is
4th.
* The
Dragonfly is in the 5th spot. So, it is
5th.
* The
Blue Fly is in the 2nd spot. So, it is
2nd.
* The
Caterpillar is in the 6th spot. So, it is
6th.
* The
Ant is in the 8th spot. So, it is
8th.
*
Right Column:
* The
Bee is in the 10th spot. So, it is
10th.
* The
Grasshopper is in the 1st spot. So, it is
1st.
* The
Ladybug is in the 9th spot. So, it is
9th.
* The
Purple Spider is in the 3rd spot. So, it is
3rd.
* The
Butterfly is in the 7th spot. So, it is
7th.
Final Answer:
Left Column (Top to Bottom):
* Snail:
4th
* Dragonfly:
5th
* Blue Fly:
2nd
* Caterpillar:
6th
* Ant:
8th
Right Column (Top to Bottom):
* Bee:
10th
* Grasshopper:
1st
* Ladybug:
9th
* Purple Spider:
3rd
* Butterfly:
7th
