Pop-Up Grammar Prepositions II Prepositions are words that show the relationship between a noun or a pronoun and other words in the sentence used to indicate location. Sometimes prepositions can be a group of words used together. They are called compound preposition or prepositional phrases. Example: in front of, on the back of, on top of, etc.

Look how prepositions work: “My dog is under the bed.”

The word under is the preposition, it shows the relationship between the dog and the bed.

The commander says that every explorer needs to have a special sleeping bag, warm enough for cold weather, and a tent. Bobby has a tent, but he does not have a thick sleeping bag. Bobby goes to a friend’s house in Carrasquilla, and asks his friend Tony to lend him a special sleeping bag for cold weather. Tony says that he only has one sleeping bag so he cannot lend it to him, because he is going on the camping trip too.

Bobby goes to another friend’s house in Villa Lucre. He asks René to lend him a sleeping bag for cold weather.

René says that he does not have a sleeping bag for cold weather. Finally, he takes a bus to go to his cousin Mario’s house in La Chorrera.

Bobby is very happy because he can go on his camping trip to the Chiriquí mountains.

CHAPTER

Pop-Up Grammar Simple Present Tense The simple present tense is used to talk about everyday activities.

The subject must agree with the verb when we use the simple present. The pronouns I, we, you, and they (as a subject) use the simple form of the verb. The pronouns he, she, or it (relates to animal or thing, feminine or masculine) need an “s” added to the verb if the sentence tells about he, she, or one thing doing the action.

I. Observe the following examples: 1. Hannah sits on her desk to work.

She works with the new computer.

The girl writes a letter.

2. The salesman helps Hannah.

Peter works at the computer store.

He enjoys helping people.

3. The computer breaks down.

TPRS - New English Adventures N. 3 This text is based on a new method for teaching languages. It was created in the USA by Blaine Ray in 2002. TPRS means Teaching Proficiency Through Reading and Storytelling.

One of the main goals of TPRS is to develop comprehensible input especially at the beginning levels. The stories included in this text will help students develop reading comprehension, vocabulary acquisition, and language usage more readily from the beginning level, thus, working towards the final goal, language output.

In addition to the stories, the text has a hundred sight words or repetitive words and their respective practice exercises. After working with them, students will increase their vocabulary as well as their reading skills.

This text is the third step in the attainment of the goals of TPRS which are comprehensible input at the early stages and correct language output as language is acquired. The goals will be attained accurately as students progress through the six level of this series.
