Teaching notes

Eleven questions on prepositions of place: in, on, under, next to, between, behind, in front of and opposite. Most questions give a short clue, such as "It's cold" or "You just cross the road", so learners choose the preposition from the meaning. It's for A1 learners and young beginners.

Before you start, put a pen in, on and under a box and ask the class to say where it is. After the quiz, ask pairs to describe their bedroom or classroom while a partner draws it. Play it live so every learner answers on their own device, or print it as a worksheet.
