i have a story for you
grandpa
is very worried
and you can see in the picture that he's
looking for something
where is my watch
so grandpa looked on the bed he cannot
find his watch so he looked on the bed
he looked behind the bed
and he still cannot find his watch so
he decides to look between the bed and
the table
does he find the watch
let's
see he looked beside the bed and still
there are no traces of the watch
then
let's have a look under the bed so he
looked under the bed
i cannot find my watch anywhere when he
saw grandma this is what he told her
grandma smiled and what did she tell
grandpa
check your pockets
all the watches in my pocket said
grandpa and he finally found his watch
so you can see there are so many places
that he looked for his watch
and finally he found it in his pocket
now let's
take a look at some of the sentences in
the story
grandpa looked on the bed let's take the
first sentence
now where did grandpa look
he looked
on the bed
now
if
this
word was not in the sentence
grandpa looked the bed
would we know
where exactly he is looking it could be
under the bed it could be beside the bed
it could be
anywhere behind the bed
so this bird on is actually telling us
where exactly he looked so we see on the
bed is telling us the exact place or the
position where he looked for the watch
now on is it a noun no it is not a noun
is it a doing word does it tell us what
he's doing
no it doesn't but it is equally
important so the word on has a special
name
it is called a
it is called a preposition
and
you can see it's a big word
but
it is made up of two words actually
pre
and position
the word pre means before
and the word position means place
so prepositions are words
which are placed before
now where are they placed let's have a
look
a preposition is a word that shows the
relation
like place or time
between a noun or a pronoun
and the other words in a sentence
so what did we learn just now we learned
about on in the sentence he looked on
the bed
the bed is the noun
and the preposition
on is showing the connection between the
bed and the other words in the sentence
so
on is a preposition and there are many
more prepositions which we are going to
have a look at now
he looked behind the bed
so
this word behind
is showing the relationship between the
bed
and he looked
the other words in the sentence
therefore
this
is a preposition the word
behind
is showing the position where he's
looking for the watch so look at this
picture where is grandpa he is at the
back of the bed looking for the watch
he looked between the bed and the table
now
this word between
is telling us
where exactly is grandpa looking for his
watch
he is looking for it between the bed and
the table
now you can see in the picture
that the bed is here and the table is
here and he is looking in the middle for
his watch so between
is showing the relation between the bed
and the table
and where he's looking
he looked beside the bed
so here
beside
shows
where he is looking very exactly you can
see that he is looking close to the bed
in the picture
so beside is showing the place where he
is looking for his watch and so it is a
preposition
he
looked under the bed
now where did he look
under the bed
under
is telling us where exactly he is
looking
under the bed
below the bed so
this
is showing the relation between the bed
and
the rest of the words in the sentence
let's have a look at the last sentence
oh the watch is in my pocket
now where is the watch
in my pocket
so this word
in
is showing us the relationship between
the pocket
and the rest of the words in the
sentence over here where is the watch
it's in
the pocket so the word in is a dash
is it a conjunction
is it a noun
or a preposition
what do you think
what does the word in do
it is showing the relation between
the pocket
and
the watch
so
what do prepositions do a preposition
shows a relation between the noun
or a pronoun
with the other words in the sentence so
what is the correct answer
in is a
preposition
so what did we see
a preposition
is a word that shows the
relation
like place
or time
between
a noun or a pronoun
and the other words in
a
sentence that is the work of a
prepositions
now these are the words that we have
learned
from the story
in
beside
behind
on
between
under
they all tell us
where did grandpa look for the watch it
is talking about an exact place where
grandpa looked for the watch
therefore these are all
prepositions there are many more
prepositions which we learned very soon
