PREPOSTIONAL PHRASE

AIM:

STUDENTS WILL COME TO KNOW,

WHAT IS PREPOSITIONAL PHRASE?

WHAT DOES IT DO TO A SENTENCE?

WHAT IS PREPOSITION?

WHAT IS PHRASE?

ACTION:

THE DOG SITS UNDER THE TABLE

FIND OTHER WAYS IN WHICH YOU CAN SAY ABOUT THE POSITION OF A DOG.

ANALYSIS:

a prepositional phrase is a modifying phrase consisting of a preposition and its object.

Refer to your earlier example (i.e. The dog sits under the table.) Underline the prepositional phrase—under
the table. Tell students that this underlined part of the sentence is the prepositional phrase.

Circle the preposition—under—and remind students that this is the preposition.

Draw an arrow from the preposition to the object—the table—and tell students that this is the object of the
preposition.

Explain that the object is the noun that follows the preposition. In this example (the dog sits under the table)
we can ask ourselves, "The dog sits under what?" The answer (the table) is the object of the preposition.
APPLICATION:

1. WHY PREPOSITION IS USED IN SENTENCES?
