Use this resource to reinforce spatial concepts in an interactive way. Students benefit from visual aids that clearly demonstrate the basic prepositions.

The flashcards are great for using full sentences to improve their grammar, vocabulary, and confidence in speaking English. Teachers can use the flashcards in whole-class, small-group, or individual activities.

Start a Sentence Building Challenge. Show a preposition flashcard, and students must write or say a sentence using the correct preposition.

Teachers can use the small cards for quick review sessions, centers, or even take-home practice. One student draws a small card and places the cutouts in the matching position.

Worksheets provide structured exercises that help students internalize prepositions by writing, reading, and coloring.

Color & Draw Prepositions Worksheet. Students will read the sentences and follow the instructions, such as draw and color the rabbit in the correct position.

Fill in the Blank Sentences worksheet where students just write the missing prepositions.

Numbered Picture & Sentence Matching Worksheet for Prepositions. It develops Reading Comprehension. Students must read and understand the sentence to find the correct matching picture, reinforcing both prepositions and sentence structure.

Encourage Critical Thinking when students must analyze the sentence and carefully color the correct rabbit, strengthening problem-solving skills.

Rolling a die adds an element of excitement, turning preposition practice into a game. Using the rabbit and mitten cutouts allows students to physically move the pieces. A student rolls the die and moves the rabbit cutout into the correct position relative to the mitten. Then, they can say a sentence describing the placement (e.g., "The rabbit is next to the mitten.").

Students connect preposition words with visual representations, strengthening vocabulary retention using the mats. Students match the word card to the correct picture on the mat.

Students put together a sentence from the puzzle provided.  Then, place it on the space and reads: (e.g., "The rabbit is behind the mitten.").

A fun board game where students must correctly say a sentence using the preposition to move forward.

Printable flap book. Each flap can include a sentence and a picture showing the position, use the template provided, encouraging students to read and connect ideas.

There are several worksheets to use along the theme.

To wrap it up, create this flap book which is a fantastic interactive tool because it provides a hands-on activity. The pages are glued in the middle. Students will match the picture to the word. They will lift each flap to reveal a hamburger in different positions relative to the box.

They can also include a sentence frame, such as "The hamburger is ___ the box." under each flap.  As an Interactive Quiz you can call out a preposition, and students find the correct flap.

 This resource for ESOL teachers is included at this LINK: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Pets-Unit-for-Elementary-ELL-Starters-10780015

This is an engaging way to teach family vocabulary within the pet unit!

Introduce the Cat Family. Students take turns picking a cat family member flashcard and describing them using simple sentences. (e.g., This is the father. He is big and gray.) If students already know the clothes vocabulary, expand on that: He is wearing a purple tie, a white shirt, blue pants and purple shoes.

Instead of one-word answers, students learn to communicate using complete thoughts to introduce family members.

Help students talk about family members and possessions clearly (e.g., This is Jane’s grandmother).

Give students the small cards and a whiteboard with colored markers to write the names of the family members.

Worksheets incorporate reading, writing, speaking, and listening, making them effective for different learning styles.

Students write the correct family member word under each cat picture.

This is a reading comprehension worksheet where students will write the name of each cat. Then, they color the family members and on their notebooks write simple sentences (e.g., The mother cat is pink.).

More worksheets to expand the lesson plan.

Help students listen, read, and comprehend simple instructions in English by coloring within a path ending on a yarn. Teachers can give extra listening practice by asking questions: Who has the orange yarn?

Students: The baby sister cat.

A puzzle for labeling the Cats – Give several students the word part and have them match to the correct family member that other students are holding.

Cat Family Finger Puppets help students create simple dialogues and stories.
