Presentation of the objectives
Introduction
Show a sentence on the board that is missing a proposition (i.e. The dog sits the table.)
Ask students what is wrong with the sentence (e.g. it's missing a word; it doesn't make
sense).
Explain that, in this sentence, it is unclear how the dog and the table are related to one
another.
Draw a picture of a dog under a table, and ask the students to use the picture to decide
what word should be added to the sentence to make it more clear.
Invite a student to come up with a new answer and correct sentence (i.e. The dog sits
under the table.)
Underline the word under in the new sentence and explain that this word is a
preposition. A preposition is a word that expresses the relationship between a noun and
another word. In this case, the proposition tells us the dog's position in relation to the
table.
Explicit instruction/ Teacher Modelling
Show a new picture of a dog next to a table. Ask students to come up with a new
sentence that describes the picture (i.e. The dog sits beside the table.)
Write the sentence on the board and underline the preposition.
Have students turn to a neighbor and discuss why a preposition is an important part of a
complete sentence. Call on students to share answers and guide the discussion as
needed (i.e. A preposition helps us understand how a noun or the subject of the
sentence is related to other words in the sentence; when the preposition changes, it
changes the meaning of the sentence; without a preposition, a sentence won't make
sense).
Write the word preposition and its definition (a word that expresses the relationship
between a noun and another word) on the board for student reference.
Discussion
Introduce to them the prepositions.
Give examples
Show to the class the common list of prepositions.
Then, the teacher will show and give examples of each prepositions.
D. Guided Practice
Give Prepositions worksheet (or display it using a document camera).
Write a sentence that is missing its preposition on the board. Include a blank line where
the preposition should be (i.e. The mouse ran ____ the house.)
On a sheet of paper, have each student rewrite the sentence three times, using three
different prepositions from the list.
Instruct students to pass their paper to a neighbor when they have finished their
sentences. Then tell students to underline the prepositions in the sentences they
received from their classmate.
Call on a few students to read their sentences aloud.
