Abstract

A great number of EFL (English as a Foreign Language) Spanish speaking students have problems using and learning the spatial and temporal English prepositions in-on-at. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis is to prove whether the application of tasks as part of the communicative lesson plan based on the PACE (Presentation, Attention, Co-Construction, Extension.) model, might help students learn and use the English prepositions of time and space: in-on-at correctly. The corpus of this study focuses on an error analysis of the use of these prepositions, applied to students of Colegio San Gabriel, corresponding to B1 level, according to the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages).
