Prepositions are always a favourite subject of mine to teach, there are so many activities to do both interactive and written. I have been using for a while a set of worksheets that were starting to look more than a little dated. They were still very good, but they needed to be dragged into the 21st century so I decided to remake them.
I usually use them after introducing the song above, its not mine as i can’t sing! I love to sing, unfortunately i have the voice of a hippo so most people ask me to stop !
I also do activities where i ask the students to read a sentence and then come and do the action. So for example “”put the pencil on the chair, put the hat under the desk” so they have some movement in the lesson as well, and then as desk work and consolidation I have made these worksheets as well.
In this set there are 7 different worksheets. There are 3 worksheets that just require the students to write a single word under the picture ( the pictures are cats, chicks and raccoons) and 3 worksheets that require students to write in full sentences. I have done this so you can give the same ”looking” worksheet to your students but if you want or need to differentiate you have the option. I have included a preposition word bank at the bottom of the worksheet to help if needed.
The 7th worksheet is a draw their own task, They have to read the sentence and then draw the picture in the empty box, this is to motivate the more artistic in the class, and, to add elements of reading and speaking rather than just writing as well. I actually like doing this one with my class the most.
This is a whole class activity that can be done in groups or pairs. I love doing this as its a real chance for students to engage with their work and for the teacher to target help where it is needed. A self directed learning win!!
This is a whole class activity that can be done in groups or pairs.
Students are given a board and the fruit/description and have to match the description to the fruit and glue it to the board
They go horizontal across the top and the bottom and vertically along the sides.
When you ( or the students) cut out the dominoes make sure there is a picture AND a description on the domino ( dominoes have two sides)
Make sure the students know how to glue them as sometimes they will stick them all at the top.
Once they have finished, they can complete the centre part of the board and describe the jobs they can see and the job they would like to do. ( everyone says YouTuber!)
I will add a started version at the bottom to give a rubric of sorts. ( the board should be printed on A3 and the dominoes on A4. )
I love doing this activity, it can be totally self directed by the students and they really practice reading and comprehension skills from this. It is a whole class activity that can be done in groups, pairs or individual. I much prefer giving it as an individual task so students have their own work to present and take home.
I have a video guide for you, which as this can be a little confusing i suggest you at least skip through it, but i will put the main details below as well.

I have 16 unique cards for both the diphthong vowel sounds and the magic E words, so you can do one or the other or even both!
This is the fully editable version, so it can be printed and is ready to go, or if you need to change it or add to it you are free to do that as well :)
Bingo is always a win in any classroom, something about it appeals to both the old and young, though it seems not those in between!!
These are easily printable , and make sure you print a smaller version for yourself to be able to keep track of which words you have said. ( you can also direct the game that way as well!!)
Happy playing!

I use these all the time, just for a little bit of fun or as a 5 minute activity in my classrooms. I give the student a letter sound and ask them to go find it on the wall. Then they have to try to say the Tongue twister to me and to the rest of the class. As a little work book it can be used to practice one a week or one a month. You can also video them saying them and send to parents if you use apps like Seesaw or Padlet.
There is a free and editable version. This one is the fully editable one :)

I made some of the picture descriptions easy so some of the text in the pictures is also editable, if you want me to send through the others just drop me an email as well :P
This is a great little game for ESL, Kindergarten and Primary students. It follows a simplified version of the popular card game UNO, and so students are likely to be familiar with the rules and game-play. I will put the rules below just in case as well.
It can be used as Uno cards, or as matching cards but you will need to go through and collect the opposites together, or look for the opposites set i will be putting on the store in a few days.
This is the adjective version of the game, and there are 48 different words and pictures. There are multiple opposites and synonyms as well if you wanted to introduce those ideas to your class These can be used as simple flashcards, but i have also put a simple sentence on the front as well asking them to find a synonym as well. You can change this anyway you want.
I have also included a design for the back if you want them to look a little more professional again you can change this if you want to!
By purchasing this you help us make more so we would like to thank you :)
