Teaching which preposition follows after which adjective. This one worked really well with my Ss when they had problems memorizing the right prepositions after adjectives. I wrote some little memo "poems" for adjective+preposition pairs, where the nouns or verbs start with the same two or three letters as the preposition, e.g.: "bored WIth WItches," "interested IN the INternet," "responsible FOR FORmatting your hard drive." Through combining an adjective with a "story" with alliterations, plus a picture, these little memos will help your Ss memorize more easily which preposition comes after which adjective. Thanks, Évi, for the inspiration! :)
