Grade 1 Grammar Worksheet
Circle the word that shows where.
The girl hid under the bed.
The bug crawled across the floor.
The pencil fell on the floor.
The bird sits in the nest.
The ball rolled under the chair.
The boy stood near the gate.
A cup sits on the table.
The cat sleeps on the bed.
A preposition is a small word that links a noun to the rest of the sentence and often tells where: the cat sleeps on the bed, the ball rolled under the chair. Children use these words in speech all day but rarely notice them as a part of speech, and in first grade the goal is simply to spot them. On this grade 1 worksheet each line is a short sentence followed by three words from it: an action word, a place word and the name of a thing, and your child circles the one that shows where.
Most lines on every sheet use in, on and under; support sheets add one other place word, such as behind or near, and later sheets add two or three, such as beside, through and across. Act each one out with a toy and a box.
Common Core standard: L.1.1.I
