    Welcome to the lesson on “Types of Prepositions”

    In this lesson, you’ll learn that not all prepositions do the same job. Some tell us where something is (prepositions of place), others tell us when something happens (prepositions of time), and some show direction, reason, or how something is done. You’ll see examples, explore patterns, and practice using these prepositions in your own sentences. By the end of the lesson, you’ll be able to identify and use different types of prepositions with confidence. Let’s begin.

    This activity allows students to practice selecting the correct preposition based on sentence context. Using a limited set of prepositions provided in a box, learners complete each sentence accurately. This exercise reinforces understanding of common prepositions related to time, manner, direction, and comparison, supporting stronger grammar usage in both writing and speaking.

    In this activity, students identify complex prepositions—phrases consisting of two or more words that function as a single preposition. Each question presents a sentence and a set of possible phrases. Learners must choose the correct complex preposition based on structure and meaning. This task deepens grammatical awareness and expands vocabulary, helping students understand nuanced relationships between sentence elements. It also encourages the use of dictionaries to reinforce meaning.

    This module practice reinforces learners’ understanding of different types of prepositions. In Section 1, students identify how highlighted prepositions function in context—whether indicating time, place, or direction. In Section 2, students complete sentences by selecting the most appropriate complex prepositions from multiple options. This two-part exercise enhances grammar skills, builds vocabulary, and supports fluency in sentence construction and comprehension.
