Prepositional Phrase Hunts

Do you know that prepositions are like little connectors in a sentence? They show the relationship between words, telling us where, when, or how something happens. By spotting prepositions, you’ll learn how to make your sentences more complete and meaningful.

You’ll practice with common prepositions such as in, on, under, over, beside, after, before, and through. For example, in the sentence “The ball is under the chair,” the word under tells us the ball’s position. These words may be small, but they carry big importance.

Through guided activities, you’ll underline prepositions in sentences, choose the correct preposition to complete a thought, and even create your own examples. These challenges help you notice how prepositions connect nouns and pronouns to the rest of the sentence.
