About this resource

Description

Prepositions are the small words that show how a noun connects to the rest of a sentence, and they often tell where or when something happens. This circle and write prepositions worksheet gives 4th grade students focused practice finding these words inside real sentences. Kids learn to spot words like past, toward, beneath, and during, and they see how each one links a noun to the action.

The circle and write prepositions worksheet starts with five sentences, and every sentence holds exactly two prepositions. Students read each sentence, circle both prepositions, and then write them on the two lines in the order they appear. In the second part, students finish three sentences by writing their own prepositional phrase that begins with a word in color. Use it as a quick grammar warm-up, a homework page, or a check after a lesson on parts of speech.

What’s Included

  • Five sentences with two prepositions each to circle and write
  • Three sentence starters to finish with a prepositional phrase
  • A friendly illustration of a paper boat drifting past the rocks
  • A complete answer key with sample phrases

Why This Worksheet Helps Kids

First, finding two prepositions in one sentence pushes students to read every word instead of stopping at the first match. Second, writing the words in order builds careful reading habits that carry over to editing their own writing. Third, building a phrase from a single preposition moves students from spotting grammar to using it, which is the real goal of this 4th grade prepositions worksheet.

Ideas for Teachers and Parents

Before starting, act out a few prepositions with a pencil and a book, such as over, under, and beside. After students finish, have them underline the noun that follows each circled word to show the whole prepositional phrase. You can also ask kids to write a short paragraph about their classroom that uses five different prepositions, then trade papers with a partner to find them.
