Title - Preposition Boogie
By - Marcy Winograd
Primary Subject - Language Arts
Secondary Subjects - Language Arts
Grade Level - 4-6
Objective: Students will follow commands using prepositional phrases and then write a paragraph using spatial order.
Procedure: The teacher introduces prepositions by explaining that these words often indicate a direction or location in space. Referring to a list of prepositions, the teacher calls out a command for students to perform. For example, the teacher says, "under the desk" and the students drop under their desk; the teacher says "on top of the desk" and students sit on top of their desk; the teacher says "next to the desk" and students stand next to their desk; the teacher says "around the desk" and the students wrap their arms around their desk; the teacher says "through the desk" and the students crouch with their arm sticking up through the area between the seat and their desk, etc.
Students can take turns calling out the commands for the rest of the class to perform.
Next the teacher explains that students will write a paragraph using prepositions to establish spatial order. The teacher asks students to describe their bedroom using the following prepositional beginning phrases: in the corner, next to the bed, on top of the dresser, in the middle of the room, under the window, etc. Students underline the prepositional phrases.
When the students are finished describing their rooms, the teacher reads paragraphs without mentioning who wrote them. The rest of the class must figure out whose bedroom is being described.
