Procedure
Teachers
-- introduce prepositions to the students by
asking them to think of two words that describe
what they could do with a box. You could even
draw a box on the board or have a box to use
as a visual aid.
Brainstorm these words and
write them on the board. Most of the words
will be prepositions.
(Examples: inside, into, under, by, over,
beneath, beside)
Preposition Definition:
