Grammar: Prepositional Phrases and Subjects, Verbs, and Objects
A follow-up to the Subjects, Verbs, and Objects worksheet, this two-page worksheet teaches students how to locate these parts of speech within the “core” of sentences by first finding and omitting the prepositional phrases within those sentences. Identifying subjects, verbs, and objects is essential to achieving subject-verb agreement, noun-pronoun agreement, and overall syntactic accuracy. I have found that many of my high school students have received little or no instruction in prepositions and prepositional phrases. This worksheet lends easily to the teaching of these grammatical structures and includes an answer key.
