ACTIVITIES FOR PREPOSITIONS OL and Other

Prepositions:
 
There are different kinds of prepositions in the English Language. 
     1. Prepositions of place 
     2. Prepositions of time
     3. Prepositions of cause, reason, purpose
     4. Prepositions of manner, standard...
     5. Prepositions of contrast....are just a few to mention.
👉 The intention of the blogger here is not to elaborate on these different groups, but to provide you with some activities. Repeated activities will help you form an idea of the function of some prepositions. Most of the students do not perform well in prepositions. Most of the mistakes in writings are related to problems with prepositions. Therefore, usually, examiners do not forget to leave a question on prepositions. Hence, the activities I am going to include on this page will help you immensely to improve your knowledge of prepositions and their correct use in sentences.

Best Cloze Passages for OL

 About Cloze Passages: 
  The cloze passage is the 11th question on the OL English language paper. The question carries 7 marks (14 blanks; 1/2 mark for each). 
Well, most students always grumble that the question consumes time and it is challenging. This means you lack practice in answering cloze passages. I also find that most English language teachers also are reluctant to expose children to cloze passages. 
Attempting a cloze passage involves intense brain work. It requires a knowledge of vocabulary, grammar and related techniques. More than anything else , 'patience'. Really, a cloze passage put your 'patience' on test. 
My students, you can practice cloze passages at home. You can do it for yourself. First, take it as a game. 
Well, you can do it the way I mention below. Try it and comment if it works.

Step 01: Select a suitable passage depending on your language proficiency. Make sure that the passage is an appealing one to you. I recommend a short story at first. Write it on a paper or just photocopy it.

Step 02: Read the passage several times until you get some idea of the theme. You may use a dictionary if you find any new words. 

Step 03: Leave the first one or two sentences and mark words after every four , five or six words. Then remove the words and write them down on a separate paper. 

Step 04: Now jumble the words you have removed as you please. 

Step 05: Now you have a cloze passage with you. Try to insert the words. Check your answers yourself with the list of words you took down in order at first. 

Note: while attempting to insert the words try to associate the words with the words immediately around the blank. 
 e.g.  If there is a blank with the article 'an' , your answer MUST be a word beginning with a VOWEL. 

As you practice you will catch up your own techniques. 
Well, you can inform me later.
Bye.

ENGLISH ACTIVITIES FOR GRADE 6

 ENGLISH ACTIVITIES AND ESSAYS FOR GRADE 6 


The Blogger's Note
Dear friends, students and teachers,
 The activities I am going to publish here are based on the Competency based English new syllabus for Grade 6 Sri Lanka. However, the activities will be created in order that any language learner or teacher can use them for English language development. 
  I also need to mention here in short about the essays that I will publish below from time to time. The essays have been written by my youngest son Kulith Tharuna under my supervision to suit the age group. He is a grade 11 (2020) student of Negombo South International School, Nittambuwa, Sri Lanka. 
  I will take every precaution to make the activities appealing to the young learner in Grade 6. 
  My objective here is not explain any lessons, but to help you with activities needed to establish what you have explained or learnt in the classroom. 
  Keep in touch with the page and I hope to contribute activities for you here in Sri Lanka and around the world. I am starting this page in keeping with many requests from my readers who always encourage me.
 Try to share this page among your students and friends as much as possible. The popularity of the page will encourage me more.  
 I always appreciate your comments.
