Draw the objects and ask “Where is/are the…?” using the prepositions **in** , **on** , **under**. Use **is** for singular items and **are** for plurals. Example answers: **The kettle is on the table.** / **The fridges are in the kitchen.**

Step-by-step pair activity

1. Draw simple shapes:
  - **a fridge** : tall rectangle with handle (place at the side = on the floor).
  - **a rectangle table** : flat rectangle with four legs (center).
  - **a bed** : long rectangle with pillow (against a wall).
  - **a lamp** : small circle + stand (on the table or next to bed).
  - **a kettle** : rounded shape with spout (can go on the table or under it).

2. Place objects to practice each preposition:
  - Put the **kettle on the table** → practice “Where is the kettle?” “It’s **on** the table.”
  - Put a small toy **under** the table → “Where is the toy?” “It’s **under** the table.”
  - Put a small item **in** the fridge drawing → “Where is the milk?” “It’s **in** the fridge.”

3. Swap roles: Student A asks, Student B points and answers. Then reverse.

Useful question–answer patterns

- “Where is the kettle?” — “The kettle **is on** the table.”
- “Where is the lamp?” — “The lamp **is on** the table/bedside.”
- “Where is the fridge?” — “The fridge **is in** the kitchen/room.”
- For plurals: “Where are the plates?” — “They **are in** the cupboard.”

Quick checklist (for your drawing and speaking)

- [] Draw each object clearly (label them).
- [] Show relative positions (on/in/under).
- [] Practice asking with “Where is/are the…?”
- [] Answer in full sentence using preposition.
- [] Swap roles and repeat.

Common mistakes and tips

- Mistake: using **in** instead of **on** (e.g., “The kettle is in the table.” → wrong). Tip: think “on” = touching the surface; “in” = inside; “under” = below and covered by nothing.
- Mistake: using **is** for plural nouns. Tip: if more than one, use **are**.
- Use short, full answers to practice structure: “It’s on the table,” not just “On table.”

Practice mini-exercise (do with partner)

1. Draw the scene with table, bed, fridge. Put the kettle under the table and lamp on the bed.
2. Partner A: “Where is the kettle?” Partner B: “The kettle is under the table.”
3. Repeat with different placements and ask follow-up: “Why is it there?” to extend practice.

## Work in Pairs: Drawing Objects and Asking “Where is/are the…?”

### Key Takeaways

- This exercise practices **prepositions of place** : **in** , **on** , **under**
- Draw 5 objects: **fridge** , **rectangle table** , **bed** , **lamp** , **kettle**
- Work with a partner: Point to drawings and ask **“Where is/are the [object]?”** (use **is** for singular, **are** for plural)
- Answer with positions like **“It’s/Them on/under/in the [other object]”**

**This English exercise helps beginners describe object locations using prepositions.** Draw the objects in the blank space, arrange them (e.g., lamp **on** the table, kettle **under** the bed), point, and practice questions/answers with a friend. Real-world use: Describing furniture in a room, like **“Where is the lamp? It’s on the table.”** (Source: Common ESL curricula like Oxford or Cambridge Young Learners).

## Exercise Instructions

**Step-by-Step Guide:**

1. **Work in pairs** – Sit with a friend or family member.
2. **Draw these things** in the blank box: a **fridge** , a **rectangle table** , a **bed** , a **lamp** , a **kettle**.
3. **Position them** using **in** , **on** , or **under** (e.g., put the kettle **under** the table).
4. **Point and ask your friend** : **“Where is/are the [object]?”**
5. **Answer** : **“It’s on/in/under the [other object].”** or **“They are…”** (if multiple).

> 💡 **Pro Tip:** Use colors for drawings (e.g., blue fridge, yellow lamp) to make it fun. Practice 5-10 times each.

**Common Pitfall:** “Rectangle table” means a table shaped like a rectangle (not round). Draw straight lines for sides.

* * *

## Objects to Draw

| Object | Description | Example Position Idea |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Fridge** | Tall kitchen cooler | Lamp **in** the fridge (silly but fun!) |
| **Rectangle table** | Flat table with 4 straight sides | Kettle **on** the table |
| **Bed** | Place to sleep | Table **under** the bed |
| **Lamp** | Light with shade | Lamp **on** the bed |
| **Kettle** | Pot for boiling water | Kettle **under** the fridge |

Draw them overlapping or next to each other to show positions.

* * *

## Prepositions Explained

- **In** : Inside something (3D space). Example: Apple **in** the fridge.
- **On** : Surface contact (top). Example: Book **on** the table.
- **Under** : Below/beneath. Example: Cat **under** the bed.

Field experience: ESL teachers use this for **A1 level** (beginners). Kids love drawing funny scenes, like a lamp **in** a kettle!

> ⚠ **Warning:** Don’t say _“on the under”_ – pick one preposition per question.

* * *

## Sample Drawings and Positions

Imagine or sketch these scenes:

1. **Scene 1:** Lamp **on** the rectangle table, kettle **under** the table.

2. **Scene 2:** Fridge with bed **in** it (funny!), lamp **under** the bed.

3. **Scene 3:** Kettle **on** the bed, table **under** the kettle.

[📊 Suggested Visual: Simple sketch of table with lamp on top, kettle underneath. Alt text: “Drawing example: lamp on rectangle table, kettle under table with arrows labeling ‘on’ and ‘under’”]

> 🎯 **Key Point:** Switch roles – you ask, then your friend asks.

* * *

## Practice Dialogue

**Student A points to drawing:**

**A:** Where is the lamp?  
**B:** It’s **on** the table. Where is the kettle?  
**A:** It’s **under** the fridge.

**B points:**  
**B:** Where is/are the bed and fridge?  
**A:** The bed is **under** the table. The fridge is **in** the room. (Bonus: Add “the room” for context!)

Repeat with all objects. Record on phone for pronunciation practice.

* * *

## Comparison Table: In vs On vs Under

| Preposition | Meaning | Example Sentence | Picture Idea | Common Error |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **In** | Inside (enclosed) | The lamp is **in** the fridge. | Object hidden inside | Use for flat things (wrong: book **in** table) |
| **On** | Top surface | The kettle is **on** the bed. | Touching top | Confuse with “at” (wrong for objects) |
| **Under** | Below | The table is **under** the lamp. | Directly underneath | Say “below” instead (less precise) |

* * *

## Summary Table

| Element | Details |
| --- | --- |
| **Goal** | Practice **Where is/are** + preposition ( **in/on/under** ) |
| **Objects** | Fridge, rectangle table, bed, lamp, kettle |
| **Question Structure** | Where **is** the [singular]? / Where **are** the [plural]? |
| **Answers** | It’s **on/in/under** the [object]. |
| **Pair Activity** | Draw → Point → Ask → Answer → Switch |
| **Level** | Beginner (A1), ages 6-10 |
| **Extension** | Add **next to** , **behind** for homework |

* * *

## FAQ

**1. What if I don’t have a partner?**  
Draw alone, then describe to yourself or a mirror: **“The lamp is on the table.”** Use a phone recorder.

**2. Is “rectangle table” special?**  
Yes, emphasize shape: Draw with straight edges, not circle. Say: **“It’s a rectangle table.”**

**3. Can I use plural?**  
Yes! **“Where are the lamp and kettle?”** Answer: **“They are under the bed.”**

**4. What’s next after this exercise?**  
Try **“next to”** , **“behind”** , **“in front of”**. Example: **“The fridge is next to the table.”**

**5. How to pronounce?**  
**Fridge** (/frɪdʒ/), **Kettle** (/ˈketəl/), **Under** (/ˈʌndər/).
