Prepositions SMART Board Activity

After taking a SMART Board training session with Nikki, I started working on an interactive whiteboard grammar lesson on prepositions.  Finding a way to make grammar even remotely engaging is always a challenge, so I thought I'd start trying out SMART board activities to see if that improved grammar lessons.  I like the song "Prepositions" by the Bazillions, so I included it as part of the lesson.  It usually gets stuck in my head and I can't get rid of it.  The grade 9 applied English class I taught last spring, sang this song as part of our work on prepositions.  I filmed them, but of course can't post that.  If you see me, please ask me about it because it is a great video. Click on the "Using Prepositions" picture below to see the whiteboard lesson that I've come up with in SMART Notebook, so far, on prepositions.  The Lady Gaga prepositions remake has several grammatical and spelling errors in it, but I couldn't fix them because someone else made the video.  Also, for those of you who are competitive, my best score on the prepositions matching game is 2214 (I don't know how I did it, because I can't even get close again).  :)
