Preposition Transformations

This worksheet helps students in Grades 4, 5, and 6 develop a deeper, more flexible understanding of prepositions by rewriting sentences that use at, in, or on in new but still correct contexts. As learners transform each sentence, they apply grammar rules, sentence logic, vocabulary knowledge, and creative thinking to ensure the preposition remains accurate while the situation changes.

Learning Goals

• Sentence Rewriting and Revision (Grades 4-6): Rewrite sentences while preserving grammatical correctness and clarity.
• Grammar Application: Apply rules for at, in, and on across different settings, actions, and locations.
• Prepositional Flexibility: Understand how the same preposition can function correctly in multiple contexts.
• Sentence Logic and Meaning: Maintain coherence and sense while adapting ideas.

Instructional Benefits

• Teacher-Created Resource: Designed to move students beyond memorization into true grammar understanding.
• Creative Language Manipulation: Encourages originality while reinforcing structural accuracy.
• Meaning-Driven Grammar Practice: Requires students to think about why a preposition works, not just which one to choose.
• Flexible Use: Suitable for grammar lessons, writing workshops, enrichment activities, or independent practice.

This printable worksheet helps students build confidence using prepositions accurately across varied situations. By transforming sentences while keeping at, in, and on correct, learners strengthen grammar mastery, sentence fluency, and creative problem-solving with language. It is a no-prep resource that works well in both classroom and homeschool language arts settings, supporting precise, flexible, and thoughtful writing.
