Practice With Prepositions
This activity shows that students can identify frequently occurring prepositions, understand their meaning, and use them correctly.
To play, students will shuffle the domino cards and divide them equally among players. One player lays a domino down the middle of the playing area. Students take turns matching either end of the dominoes with the words and pictures that fit the sequence. Gameplay continues in this manner until someone lays down their last domino, making them the winner.
An answer key is included with your download for students to self-check their work.

Leave the cards in a pile, and instruct students to grab one as soon as they enter the classroom. On a piece of paper, have students identify both prepositions on either side of the domino by writing the word in the picture, and drawing a picture for the word.
