What are the three things in a sentence that you will not find in a prepositional phrase?
Subject, verb, and direct object are three things you will not find in a prepositional phrase.
All of the class is good or are good?
First, find the subject of the sentence. In this case, the subject is "all," which is a plural subject. It refers to a group-- All boys; all girls; all Americans, etc. But I know what is confusing: "of the class." The short answer is, don't worry about it. Any time you see words like "of", "in", "to", "with," etc, these are all prepositions and this means there's a prepositional phrase coming. Examples: of the class, in the room, at the bus stop, with my friends...-- these are all prepositional phrases. The reason I am mentioning this is a prepositional phrase cannot be the subject of a sentence. For example: the color of his eyes is blue. (Eyes is not the subject. Color is the subject. As for "eyes," it is part of a prepositional phrase-- "of his eyes", and it cannot be the subject. If there were no prepositional phrase, you could say His eyes are blue.) So, just make the prepositional phrase vanish, and you have the subject all by itself. Thus, All (ignore "of the class") are good.
In a prepositional phrase where would you find the preposition?

First, you find the preposition, then you find the object of the preposition. Example:The dog sat under the tree. [under is the preposition, and tree is the object of the preposition, so the whole prepositional phrase is "under the tree"]The object of the preposition is a noun or pronoun that follows a preposition and completes its meaningFor more help, try the following website link below.
Is as a prepositional phrase?
No. A prepositional phrase needs a noun, and it needs a preposition. It's called a "prepositional phrase" because it's not a sentence-- it can't stand by itself and make sense, and it's often used in a sentence to give more information. For example, "in the house" is a prepositional phrase. So is "at the zoo," "on the roof," "inside my wallet," "to the principal's office," and "under a bridge." There are many prepositions, but they include: in, on, to, at, under, over, etc. Here is how it is used in a sentence: "At the zoo, there are many interesting animals." Or, "Her teacher sent her to the principal's office." First, find the preposition ("at" in first sentence, "to" in the second), then find the noun, and chances are you have found the prepositional phrase.

If you need to find the verb in a sentence why would you want to find prepositional phases first?
By finding the prepositional phrase/s, you take away "unnecessary" parts of the sentence. Prepositional phrases add to the sentence, but they can be taken out in order to isolate the subject, verb, and direct object (if there is one.) Example: I love to play at the park. Now take out the prepositional phrase. I love to play. What's the verb? Love. I is the subject, and play is the direct object.
