Description
Age range 3 to 6
In this illustrated preposition book, children will learn English spatial prepositions through visual examples and engaging games designed to test their knowledge.
With simple explanations and a plethora of fun, colourful illustrations, this fully illustrated book uses visual examples to teach children how to use eight basic prepositions of place in everyday situations:
- In
- On
- Under
- Above
- Next to
- Between
- Behind
- In front of
After being introduced to these eight basic prepositions of place, the child reader will remember them and learn to use them in their daily life. Each preposition includes a visual aid showing a blue box and a red ball (or multiple balls) positioned in relation to the box, such as in, on, under, above, next to, between, behind, or in front of. Each preposition takes up a page featuring the visual aid plus a large representative image on the left and four additional examples of the use of the preposition on the right.
For example, the entry for "under" contains five fun images with the following text:
- Lucy and Eddie are playing under the umbrella.
- The bug is under the rock.
- The presents are under the tree.
- The ball is under the car.
- The whale is under the boat.
Through this simple method of repetition, children will learn to commit the prepositions to memory. But this learning process doesn't have to be boring. In addition to the visual examples, this book also includes a little game at the end (titled: WELCOME TO OUR ROOM. CAN YOU TELL WHERE EVERYTHING IS?) to help reinforce the concepts learned.
Words About Where is ideal for children aged 3 to 6 who want to master English spatial prepositions. It is an excellent resource for kids learning English as a second language, as well as for young native speakers looking to enhance their understanding of prepositions. Young readers will enjoy spotting and naming the prepositions in the pictures and will be able to exercise their new knowledge in an exciting and engaging way. With its fun approach and helpful exercises, this book makes learning prepositions easy and enjoyable.
