  A preposition always has at least one noun or pronoun as an object.   The noun or pronoun is called the object of the preposition.   The preposition, its object, and any modifiers, of the object make up a prepositional phrase.   The object of the preposition follows the preposition.

  Ex.: The pile of dry leaves had grown much larger. The preposition of relates its object, leaves to pile. The adjective dry modifies leaves. Ex.: He poured sauce over the pizza. The preposition over relates its object, pizza, to poured.

  Ex.: The flea collar is for cats and dogs. The preposition for has two objects cats and dogs.   Ex.: My big sister had to decide between the University of Wisconsin and Carroll College. The preposition between has two objects the University of Wisconsin and Carroll College.

Some words may be used as both prepositions and adverbs. A preposition has at least one noun or pronoun as an object. An adverb NEVER does. To choose preposition or adverb, look for the object

Ex. preposition: Clouds gathered above us. Us is the object of the preposition above. Meet me outside the gym tomorrow. Gym is the object of the preposition outside. Ex. adverb: Clouds gathered above. There is not an object. Meet me outside tomorrow morning. There is not an object.

A preposition shows the relationship between a noun or pronoun and another word. A preposition is always part of a phrase. A prepositional phrase begins with a preposition and ends with a noun or pronoun- the object of the preposition. There may be more than one object. Prepositional phrases may come at the beginning of a sentence. Some words can be used as prepositions and as adverbs.

Preposition or an Adverb? o Decide whether the underlined word is a preposition (PREP) or an adverb (ADV), then label it. 1) Before it rains, bring your bike in. 2) Had you seen a Chinese New Year Parade before? 3) Red and green lights sparkled down the street. 4) Smoke from the campfire disappeared in the heavy fog. 5) Andy turned the log over and found a worm.

Figurative Language

Simile A simile is a direct comparison between one thing and another that is usually very different. Similes use the words “like” or “as” to show the comparison. Example: The children jumped like jack-in-the-boxes when they heard the noise.

Metaphor Metaphor A metaphor expresses one thing by referring or comparing it to another thing. It suggests a comparison by telling you that one thing is something else. Example: Mrs. Jones is a skyscraper in a sea of sixth graders.

Metaphors usually use the linking verbs to compare. Examples of linking verbs used in metaphors are: am is are was were bebeen become

Personification Personification A personification gives animals, objects, or abstract ideas human qualities. Example: The side of the cliff was crying as we drove by on the way home. (This can mean the rain was pouring off the cliff.) Spongebob Squarepants is also an example of personification.

Hyperbole Hyperbole An hyperbole is a gross exaggeration of something. Example: Mrs. Remley gave us a ton of homework last night.

Idiom Idiom An idiom is an expression that means something different from what it actually says. Example: She had a chip on her shoulder.

Imagery Imagery Imagery creates mental pictures through sensory language-words or phrases that appeal to the five senses.

Onomatopoeia Onomatopoeia An onomatopoeia is a word that sounds the way it is spelled. Example: zoom, hiss, buzz, crackle, quack, plop, crinkle

Alliteration Alliteration An alliteration is the repetition of an initial (beginning) sound in the words of a line of poetry or in a story. (If it is used too much it sounds like a tongue twister.) Examples: “bouncing baby boy” “the raging, running rapids”

Examples Examples 1. I have a dog that is as fat as a cow. …. dog that is as fat as a cow is a/an… …. dog that is as fat as a cow is a/an… a. onomatopoeia b. idiom c. simile d. metaphor THINK… I see a comparison. I see the word “as”. Hyperbole is not a choice. The dog has not become a cow.

2. It was just sour grapes that made Little May say, “I didn’t want that ugly ribbon anyway!” when her 4-H project didn’t win at the fair. … just sour grapes is a/an… a. alliteration b. personification c. metaphor d. idiom THINK… There is no comparison. There are no adjacent sounds repeated. No objects are behaving with human qualities.
