    Parts of Speech - Prepositions


    Almost all words have a part of speech. Which part of speech a word has depends on how it is used in a sentence. Here is a list of the eight parts of speech:
    Noun Verb Adjective Adverb Conjunction Preposition Pronoun Interjection

    Preposition: A preposition is a word that shows the relationship between its object and
    some other word in a sentence. Example: The birds flew through the air.

    In this example, the word through is a preposition because it is used to show the relationship between word flew and its object the air. Directions: Underline the prepositions in the following sentences. 1) The mouse ran across the room. 2) The chair is beside the table. 3) I am at the University of North Carolina. 4) The crocodile is under the water. 5) We are in English class. 6) The stoplight hangs above the street. 7) The children are running around the room as fast as they can. 8) My cat jumped onto the table. 9) When you sing, sound comes out of your mouth. 10) The river runs over the rocks.

    Directions: Now make your own sentences. Try to use prepositions. 1) _____________________________________________________________________ 2) _____________________________________________________________________
