Use of the preposition 'at'

Posted by Shwetha Jairam on June 17, 2007, 19:40:53

Hi, I am an English teacher myself. I teach English to a few corporate employees. I was trying to loook for some interesting exercises to run in class on the internet and came across your website. It's rather well put together and very useful.Although I do have one question. In the exercise about prepositions, the sentence: "I'm going to Venice on the weekend." The answer sheet said the correct usage is "...at the weekend." I thought that was incorrect. Isn't it more appropriate to use "over the weekend" or "during the weekend". Just curious. Thank you. Regards, Shwetha
