PICTURE AND READING COMPREHENSION - PREPOSITIONS OF PLACE

What’s true and what’s not?

The task is to look at the picture on the card, read the English sentences next to the picture, and then choose the sentences that are true. The sentences describe what can/could be seen in the picture (e.g. The orange is next to the apple. The blueberry is in front of the orange. The apple is between the orange and the pear. The blueberry is behind the pear.)

The cards may have one true statement, more than one true statement, or may not have any true statements at all.

The worksheets included are based on the same principle as the cards.

The cards and worksheets help students practice:

• prepositions of place - in, on, in front of, behind, next to, between, above, under

• there is, there are

• the verb be in positive and negative sentences

This teaching material includes:

• 30 cards

• 3 worksheets – each worksheet includes four pictures with five or six sentences. Students who need an additional challenge can come up with their own sentences for the given picture (true or false).

• answer key – a table of all cards in which true statements are marked.
