Anchor Chart:

Prepositions show relationships between other words in a sentence, according to the following categories. LOCATION above after below behind beneath between by in in front of into next to on over under MOVEMENT across around against away from into from on onto off over past to through towards up TIME at ago before in on during for until till since A preposition always needs an object. The object of the preposition is a noun (or word/phrase acting as a noun) that follows a preposition and completes its meaning. A prepositional phrase has three parts. It has the preposition, the object of the preposition, and the modifiers of the object.

Introduction

Hey reader, we have been looking mainly at traditional stories in our reading units so far. We are now going to transition to some drama! Drama can be called plays, reader's theater, and stage performances. 

Just like a story, dramas also have elements. Dramas have a cast of characters, settings, descriptions, dialogue, and stage directions written by a playwright. It follows a natural story arc, just like in a normal story, but is meant to be performed in front of others.
