This resource supports Year 6 SPaG revision for prepositions and includes 20 carefully structured questions with a full answer sheet. The questions include identifying prepositions in sentences, selecting and writing prepositions, explaining what prepositions do and applying understanding by writing sentences using prepositions accurately to show time, place and position.

Many verbs in German are used in tandem with specific prepositions. Examples of similar combinations in English are: ‘to think about’, ‘to be afraid of’, ‘to suffer from’, etc. Very often, these prepositions have nothing to do with location or direction, but instead link verbs to nouns in a more abstract way.
German has its own set of verb-preposition combinations, but since the German learner doesn’t always have the luxury of hearing them being used in a natural environment, these combinations also have to be studied and memorized. By this point, a student may have already run across some of them: ‘denken an’, ‘sorgen für’, ‘Angst haben vor’, and a number of others. This lesson will introduce the student to verb-preposition combinations in a more deliberate and concentrated way, opening the door to greater fluency in both reading and speaking.
For students wishing to skim the highlights of this topic, the first two pages provide a good introductory view. These students can skip forward to the “More Example Sentences” section at the bottom of page 6. Here, nine frequently occurring verb-preposition combinations are illustrated in different tenses. For students wishing to delve deeper into the subject, the rest of the document provides plenty of information and new vocabulary to help assist in fluency.
Over 70 verb-preposition combinations are provided in this lesson. Twenty of these combinations are illustrated in example sentences, some color coded for clarity. (As a prerequisite, students should already be familiar with how to use reflexive verbs.)
This interesting and engaging lesson (there are actually enough resources to fill 2-3 lessons here) enables students to learn a range of different prepositions, to use different prepositions in their writing, and to understand and use prepositional phrases. In particular, students become familiar with the importance of prepositions and prepositional phrases in a wide range of writing, through a number of fun and interactive tasks.
Throughout the lesson, students learn to:
- Define and exemplify prepositions;
- Secure their understanding of different types of prepositions;
- Identify prepositions in writing and analyse their effect;
- Understand what prepositional phrases are, and identify them in writing;
- Accurately use their own prepositions and prepositional phrases;
- Peer/ self assess their partners/ their own prepositions and prepositional phrases.
The resources include:
-Visually engaging and comprehensive whole-lesson/s PowerPoint;
-Prepositions worksheet;
-Prepositional Phrases worksheet
-Model Example;
-Step-by-step lesson plan.

This was originally intended to go with expo 1 and is a simple introduction to French prepositions using pictures of a cat as a memory aid. I have found year 7 classes responded well to this and liked the cat theme! On the slide with a grid of 6 numbered pictures I have played pass the parcel. I put lots of scraps of paper with the numbers 1-6 in a box and pass it round the room to French accordian music. When the music stops the pupil holding the box pulls out a nuber and has to say the relevant French sentence. Works a treat every time!

Some prior knowledge of school subjects is needed for the do-now starter activity.
