Warm-up In order to present the new topic you will
need a box. Take out the box in front of
the class. Rattle the box and have your
students try to guess what is inside.
Take out the ball and show it to the
class. Tell them that they are going to
learn about prepositions. Tell them that
prepositions are words that we use to
say where things are. Teach each
preposition by placing the ball in
different positions in relation to the box,
for example: The ball is behind the box.
Write all the prepositions on the board.
Practicing prepositions: Simon says
Have all of the students stand. They will
use the objects available in the class to
play, such as the desks and the chairs.
Play the game as you normally would,
but with each instruction use a
preposition to describe where they

4. should be in relation to the object they
are using. For example, you can give
instructions like the following:
Simon says stand on your chair.
Simon says hid under your desk.
