Spot prepositions and use phrases that tell where, when, how and which one.

Spot the phrases

A prepositional phrase starts with a preposition (such as from, under or after) and ends with a noun or pronoun, called the object of the preposition.

Night walk notes: Ranger Teo leads a night walk in the woods. The group watches for flying squirrels. These squirrels do not really fly. They glide from tree to tree on a furry flap of skin that stretches between their front and back legs. Their big eyes help them see in the dark.
