Let's solve this worksheet step by step and explain each part.

Part 1: Differentiate the three concepts in a sentence.
We are asked to define or explain what
conjunctions,
prepositions, and
interjections are, using examples in sentences.
####
✔ Definitions with Examples:
1.
Conjunction
- A word that connects words, phrases, or clauses.
- Example: *I like apples
and oranges.*
→ "and" joins two nouns (apples and oranges).
2.
Preposition
- A word that shows the relationship between a noun (or pronoun) and another word in the sentence, often indicating direction, location, or time.
- Example: *The book is
on the table.*
→ "on" shows where the book is located.
3.
Interjection
- A word or phrase that expresses emotion or reaction and is often followed by an exclamation mark.
- Example:
*Oh!* I forgot my keys.
→ "Oh!" shows surprise.
