About this resource
Description
Prepositions are the small but mighty words that tell us where, when, and how things happen — words like in, on, over, behind, and between. This prepositions worksheet helps students recognize these position and direction words and use them correctly to add detail and clarity to their sentences. Learning to choose the right preposition is an important grammar skill that strengthens both reading comprehension and writing.
This printable preposition practice worksheet gives third graders a clear word bank and a set of everyday sentences with one preposition missing in each. Students read each sentence, think about the relationship between the words, and write the preposition from the word bank that fits best. Teachers can use it for independent practice, morning work, a literacy center, or homework, and the included answer key makes checking fast and easy.
What’s Included
- 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
- Answer key
- A 10-word preposition word bank and 8 fill-in-the-blank sentences
This prepositions worksheet supports learning in three ways. First, the word bank removes spelling roadblocks so students can focus on meaning and pick the word that makes each sentence make sense. Second, the real-world sentences — climbing, swimming, hiding, and more — give children memorable context that makes abstract grammar feel concrete. Third, completing the sentences builds confidence with sentence structure, which carries over directly into stronger, more descriptive writing of their own.
To extend the lesson, ask students to act out prepositions with a small toy and a box — place the toy in, on, under, and beside the box and name each position. Go on a “preposition hunt” around the classroom or home and describe where everyday objects are located. Challenge students to write their own silly sentences using each word from the word bank, then read them aloud. These playful activities reinforce the skill while keeping practice hands-on and fun.
