Read a short text and identify the main ideas. I will assign the students a criminal from the text to research and will show the answers afterward.
MEANING I will ask students some CCQ's for students to identify meaning. 1. He is dressed in his prison uniform. CCQ’s What is the preposition / prepositional phrase? What is it dependent on? Does dressed in mean wearing (synonym)? 2. The lawyer complained about the verdict. CCQ’s What is the preposition / prepositional phrase? What is it dependent on? Does complained about mean contested (synonym)? 3. He succeeded in proving his innocence. CCQ’s What is the preposition / prepositional phrase? What is it dependent on?

Does based on mean citing (synonym)? FORM What is the structure of the grammar point? I will ask my students to identify the different components in the structure. Grammatical break down for dependent prepositions depends on the meaning/form of the sentence. verb/noun/adjective + dependent preposition + prepositional phrase PRONUNCIATION a.
