Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Identify prepositions in a sentence
Identify the object of a preposition
Identify a complete prepositional phrase, including both the preposition and its object
Teaching tips
Teach the three worksheets in sequence, since each builds on the skill from the one before it
Point out to students that several sentences deliberately contain no preposition, object, or phrase, so a blank answer can be correct
Use the answer key pages to grade quickly, since they mirror the student pages exactly
Skills covered
Preposition identification — students circle every preposition across ten sentences describing everyday situations.
Object-of-preposition identification — students underline the noun each preposition is describing in a second set of sentences.
Prepositional phrase identification — students underline the full phrase and circle the preposition within it in a third exercise.
Good to know
Questions teachers ask about this resource
How does the third exercise build on the first two?
After separately practicing finding prepositions and finding their objects, the third page combines both skills by having students underline the full prepositional phrase and circle the preposition within it.
Why do some example sentences have no correct answer to mark?
The directions note that some sentences deliberately contain no prepositions, objects, or phrases at all, so leaving an item blank is the correct response for those cases.
