Prepositions of time: in / on / at   Remember: - We use IN for something that occurs during a period of time that isn't very specific (seasons, years, months, etc.) e.g. I was born in 1977.       We have school holidays in Summer.       I don't play sport in June.       I like to take a nap in the afternoon. - We use AT for specific points in time (2 p.m., Easter, *Weekend, etc.) e.g. I have lunch at 1.30 p.m.       We go to the cinema at night.       The family gets together at Christmas. - We use ON for specific days (days of the week, special days/anniversaries, etc.) e.g. I went out for dinner on my birthday.       We go to the beach on Saturdays.       She is getting married on 26th May. - We DON'T use prepositions when we use terms like every, this, last, next, etc. because these terms indicate specific days. e.g. I have lessons next Tuesday. (not I have lessons on next Tuesday).       We watch House every Monday (not We watch House on every Monday).        He finished his homework this morning. (not He finished his homework in this morning.) Now you try... A. Choose the correct preposition using either in, on, at or - (no preposition). 1. I was born 25th October. 2. My brother leaves work 9 o'clock the evening. 3. We went to England the Autumn. 4. I have swimming lessons Tuesdays. 5. He takes his dog for a walk the morning. 6. We like to go to bed late night. 7. Daniel didn't go to school this morning. 8. Jack teaches his children to swim  Friday afternoons. 9. They are allowed to play video games the weekend. 10. We have decided to go jogging every Sunday. 11. Our children go to school 8 o'clock the morning. 12. I hope we have good weather this Summer. B. Fill in the missing prepositions: I was born a beautiful sunny Monday morning. My mother said the weather was very unusual that day because it usually rains April so she always jokes around saying that I brought the sun with me.  Anyway, the strange thing is that it has never rained my birthday, which is great because I get to have a party outdoors with all my friends. My birthday this year is a Wednesday so I can't have a party during the day because of school. But my mother said that we can have it the following Saturday, the afternoon.  I hope it doesn't rain!! *British English use.   Americans say "on the weekend".
