ASSIGNMENT

the right box below on the basis of how they work in sentences.

Mrs. Thompson walked into the room. She really felt even worse when her

students except Teddy brought her beautiful Christmas presents. Teddy

brought the gift that was clumsily wrapped in the heavy brown paper.
Mrs. Thompson opened it in the class. Some of the children started to
laugh when she found a second-hand bracelet and perfume; however,

she exclaimed how pretty the bracelet was. She put the bracelet on and

dabbed the perfume on her wrist. After school, Teddy said.” Ma’am, you
smelled just like my mom.”

After Teddy went, Mrs. Thompson cried for an hour. Then, she quit teaching
subjects, but started teaching the children. She paid her special attention

to him. He brought radical change in him, his studies and behavior. He had

become one of the smartest children in the class within a year.

Types of Prepositions

Simple prepositions show the movement or position of a noun or pronoun
and the time of the action. Keep in mind that we cannot differentiate

between the position of a noun and time unless the prepositions are used in
a sentence.
