Preposition Quiz

The KS2 Grammar Quiz is a concise assessment tool designed for Year 3 students to evaluate their understanding of prepositions. The quiz, which consists of 10 questions, follows the teaching of prepositions and serves as a retrieval practice exercise. It also links to a teaching PowerPoint for prepositions, and can be utilised both before and after teaching the topic. The quiz is structured with a question slide followed by an answer slide, making it suitable for use as a quick assessment of pupil knowledge or as a starter activity in the classroom.

Questions in the quiz cover the definition of a preposition, identification of time, place, and cause prepositions, and the application of prepositions in sentences. Students are asked to select prepositions from a list, identify prepositions within given sentences, and add appropriate prepositions to complete sentences. This quiz not only tests the ability to recognise prepositions but also encourages understanding of how they function in different contexts to express time, place, and cause. By engaging with this quiz, students can demonstrate their grasp of how prepositions contribute to the meaning and coherence of sentences.
