1. PARTS OF THE SENTENCE: PHRASES
PHRASE: a group of related words that lack a subject or a predicate (verb), or both. NOTE: A phrase cannot stand alone as a sentence, but is instead used in sentences as single parts of speech.

2. Prepositional Phrases …
…are phrases that begin with prepositions and end with nouns or pronouns
These phrases can be adjectival or adverbial

3. REVIEW PARTS OF SPEECH
To determine if a phrase is adverbial ask: When? Where? How? Why? To what extent?
Adverbial phrases function just like adverbs and may appear anywhere in the sentence.
For example:
During January break, my sister works at a diner for book money.
We’ve been waiting since yesterday for a ride.

4. MORE REVIEW
To determine if a phrase is adjectival ask: What kind? How many? Which one?
Adjectival phrases immediately follow a noun
For example:
The horse in the trailer with the rusted latch broke loose.
The man in the yellow hat drove the blue car with the yellow stripes.

5. MORE terms to know!
Object of the preposition: the noun or pronoun that completes a prepositional phrase.
For example:
….on the wall.
…over the bridge.

6. Practice:
DIRECTIONS: Find each prepositional phrase, determine if it is adverbial or adjectival and indicate what is modified by the phrase.
