“If history were taught in the form of stories, it would never be forgotten.”
-Rudyard Kipling, Author
The following preposition poem was written by a girl after skiing with her family. Copy it in your best handwriting.
Skiing
Up the ski lift
Above the ground
Toward the summit
From the top
Down the mountain
Through the woods
Between two trees
Off a jump
During the snow
Against the wind
Beside my dad
Behind my brother
Beyond my mom
Toward the bottom
At the end of the trail
