REVIEW:
Preposition is placed before a noun or a pronoun in the
sentence to show relationship.
The combination of preposition with noun or pronoun is
called prepositional phrase.
The prepositions at, in, and on are all used in time, place
and location.
For TIME
at is specific, on is one day, while in is longer than one
day.
For PLACE
at is used in specific place & address, on is for streets,
roads, avenues, etc., while in is for wider places such as
towns, cities, countries & continents.
Finally, for POSITION
at means by, beside, or near, on means in contact with the
surface, while in means inside or within.
Homework:
Look for previous notes and sentences
you have written in your notebook, diary,
quizzes, essays tests, etc.
Check the prepositions at, in, and on
that you used and
correct them yourself.
Dont forget: While
youre
doing it, HAVE
FUN but BE SERIOUS.
Education consists
mainly of what we
have unlearned.
~Mark Twain
Learning is a
treasure that will
follow its owner
everywhere.
~Chinese Proverb
Correct! Very
Good!
