 1. Short Story Reading

Listen to the story that I will read.

I stay at my uncle’s farm every summer. I wake

up early every morning to gather ducks eggs. Before
the sun goes up, my cousin Celso and I drive the
goats to the grassy hill to graze. There is plenty of
grass to eat so the goats are full within an hour. By
this time Uncle Pastor is busy among his vegetable
plants. Celso and I help him pull the weeds or
cultivate the soil until lunch time which is around
twelve noon. After lunch, I lean against the trunk of a
huge acacia tree and take a nap for about half hour.

2. Discussion and Analysis

Have the pupils answer these questions. The teacher will
elicit and write the answers on the board to process and
underline the preposition.

a. Where is the story taking place? (in the farm)

b. When did the boys drive the goats to the graze?
PRESENTATION OF (before the sun goes up)
CONCEPT c. In how many hours that the goats full? (within an
hour)
d. Where does Uncle Pastor work most of the time?
(among the vegetable plants)
e. When is lunch time? (around twelve noon)
f. What do the boys do when the sun gets hot? (lean
against a tree)
g. What may be a good thing to do after lunch?
h. If you were Celso, will you also enjoy working on a
farm?
i. Will you also help your Uncle? How?
j. Say: Let’s go back to your answers to the
questions. What do you call the underlined words?
(preposition)
 What part of the speech do the prepositions
end? (noun or pronoun)
 What do you call the group of words that
begin with the preposition and end with a
noun or pronoun? (prepositional phrase)
 The teacher will then deepen the concept of
preposition in a phrase.

REVIEW
 A preposition of places are words that relate a noun or
pronoun to another word in a sentence.

DEEPENING OF THE CONCEPT

 A preposition, its object, and modifier of the object make
DEVELOPMENTAL up a prepositional phrase.
LEARNING  Sometimes, prepositions have two or more objects. We
call these compound objects. The noun or the pronoun
that follows the preposition which relates to another
word in the sentence is called the object of the
preposition.
 A prepositional phrase is made up of the preposition, the
object of the preposition, and all the words in between.
 PRACTICAL Think – pair - share
APPLICATION/ Pupils will be asked to narrate their experience/journey of
VALUES going to school using the prepositional phrases used in
INTEGRATION the activity game and lessons discussed.

Ask pupils this question and guide them to elicit the

answer.
What is a prepositional phrase?
GENERALIZATION/ A prepositional phrase is group of words that
SUMMARY begins with a preposition and ends with a noun or a
pronoun.
Will consolidate the lesson through a short Preposition
