In the course of the discussion, whether the student understands the concepts inherent in the parts of speech is what is most important. From the meaning that your student inferred from the sentence, s/he may possibly be correct. Ask the student why s/he labeled it a particular way and listen to the explanation carefully.
Finally, in discussing whether a prepositional phrase is an adverb or an adjective, remember that this is not nearly as clear cut as most other grammar concepts. Try to look at the sentence as if it is the first time to see it. It’s easy to change the order of the words but still read into the sentence the meaning from the first time it was read. The other helpful hint is to determine if the phrase can be moved WITHOUT CHANGING THE MEANING OF THE SENTENCE. The prepositional phrase in this sentence is answering the question which girl–the girl down the street–not where the girl is. It answers the question where and is an adverb modifying is. For example: The girl is down the street. However, often times they answer the question “which one”. They all appear to answer the question “where”. Bear in mind that most prepositional words are placement words–on, in, by, down, at, etc. In Worksheets 17-24, the vast majority of the questions are about what the prepositional phrase modifies.
