Prepositions Animal Mysteries Activity

Prepositions Animal Mysteries Activity offers educators a fun way to teach prepositions to grades 2-4. This activity features two engaging mystery stories - The Case of the Crazy Photoshoot and The Case of the Ice Cream Machine. Each mystery presents clues with prepositions that students must decode to eliminate suspects and solve the case. The photoshoot mystery has more advanced sentences and application questions suited to grades 3-4. The ice cream mystery uses simpler sentences and identification questions better for grades 2-3. Both versions help students learn prepositions through context, include writing prompts, a suspect list, and answer keys. Use these mysteries for whole-class instruction, small groups, centers, or even as homework. The interactive format keeps students engaged as they strengthen preposition skills.
