A preposition can be a word or a phrase.Here are a few common prepositions:(For a good list of English prepositions with definitions, see the links below.)onbyagainstunderthroughaboveinbetweennext tobehindon top ofduringinside2. Once you have found a preposition in a sentence, you need to keep reading to find the object of the preposition that ends the sentence. It will be a noun or pronoun that comes after the preposition. It may not be directly after the preposition as there may be other words in the phrase.Let's practice identifying the prepositional phrase in this sentence:She waited inside the house.In this sentence, "inside" is the preposition.We continue reading after the preposition to find the object of the preposition."The" is not a noun or pronoun, so it cannot be the object of the preposition.The next word is "house."

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.
