The issue of English grammar in preposition had risen during the class’s learning particularly among Year 3 pupils
during the pandemic covid-19 school session. This is lead to a problem where pupils were unable to perform well
particularly in understanding the basic concept of preposition. Most of the pupils faced difficulty in English learning
during PDPR session and they were inactive and unmotivated in the class after entering back to school. Therefore,
the aim ofthis PrepoWheego innovation is to improve and strengthen pupils’ foundation of three concepts of
prepositions which preposition of time, preposition of place and preposition of direction. Generally, the main concept
of PrepoWheego is to make student learn preposition through learning and playing. There are two main elements in
PrepoWheego concept which are PrepoWheego Wheel (learning) and PrepoWheego Games (Play). PrepoWheego
wheel is a wheel-based innovation concept that help the pupils to learn preposition which contained three main
elements or topics in preposition which are preposition of time, place and direction. This wheel-based innovation
concept embedded three basic aspect that may help the student to learn preposition in excitement ways. The three
aspects are pictures, words and examples. These aspects are very important to help pupils to understand the overall
concepts of preposition better based on the given pictures, words and example of sentences. Indirectly, it will help the
pupils to foster their cognitive memory for them to understand and learn the concept in the easiest and most efficient
way. This innovation also applies the concept of playing games in order toen courage the pupils to enjoy while
learning the concept of preposition. During the innovation process, a quantitative data of pre and post-tests was
employed to measure the outcome and effects of the innovation to students. Twenty pupils from Year 3 Cerdik class
in SK Ayer Molek, Melaka were chosen as the sample of the research. Besides that, responses from informal
interviews and classroom observations were also taken into consideration. Result of pre and post-test shows that
there is a tremendous improvement between the mean marks of pre-test=1.35 and post-test 6.85. The pupils were
able to apply correct basic rules of preposition and the right usage of preposition words in the tasks. At the end of the
study, teacher found that the pupils enjoy learning, can understand and felt more confident. Preposition lessons
became less stressful as they could easily search for answers in a fun and creative way after using PrepoWheego.
