A preposition is a word that shows the relationship between a noun (or pronoun) and another word in a sentence.
It often tells us where, when, or how something is happening.
Examples:
- 🐱 The cat is on the roof.
- 🌳 The ball is under the tree.
- 🏫 We go to school by bus.

Ask yourself:
- Does it tell where? (place) 🗺️
- Does it tell when? (time) ⏰
- Does it tell how something is done? 🎯
Tip: A preposition always comes before a noun or pronoun.
