  1. Painting With Phrases Grammar Review With Mrs. Demos and Mr. Stein

  2. Objectives • Students will recognize a phrase in order to support their writing and knowledge of parts of a sentence • Students will also be able to discriminate and explain the differences between the 5 types of phrases: preposition, appositive, infinitive, participle, and absolute phrases to use correctly in their writing. • Students will categorize and generate examples of each phrase type as they create a reference tool for use throughout the year on this topic.

  3. Formative Pre-Assessment • Put check on your comfort level with phrases: • Uncertain • Familiar • Very Confident

  4. Subject and Predicate -- Simplified • Subject is the Person, Place, Thing or Idea that the whole sentence is about. • Predicate is the action of the sentence. • What the subject is doing. • Example: • I completely ignored the fact that the idea of falling a hundred or so feet in a barrel was incredibly stupid.

  5. Practice Identifying Subject and Predicate Action Verb • I read an article in a magazine called "The Fools Who Shoot the Falls." • The barrel was filling up with water quickly. • You could not kick a pickle barrel apart from the inside.

  6. What is a phrase? • A group of words intended to have meaning • (Does notcontain a subject AND a predicate action) • Often will be used to describe the subject or the predicate action. • The clock ran. • Which? • How? • Why? • What? • When? • Where?

  7. Painting with Phrases • Phrases Bring Color to boring simple sentences: • The alligator opened its mouth. • Which alligator? • Where did this happen? • Why did it open up its mouth? • When did this happen? • Under the darkness of the storm, the alligator, the last one left at the zoo, opened its mouth, filled with sharp teeth and dripping with blood to scare nearby attackers.

  8. 5 types of Phrases • Infinitive • Preposition • Appositive • Participle • Absolute Students will create their own phrase palates

  9. Infinitive • To + verb + any additional modifiers connected to it. • Can be used as noun, adjective, or adverb • Her plan to eliminate crime won wide acceptance among urban politicians. [describes which plan, functions as an adjective] • To watch Uncle Billy tell this story is an eye-opening experience. [noun-subject of the sentence] • Juan went to college to study veterinary medicine. [tells us why he went, so it's an adverb]

  10. Preposition • Begins with preposition and ends with a noun. • Often will show location and time –answer the questions: • WHERE and WHEN • Can be used as adjective / adverb as well. • Examples: • In the Middle Ages people only bathed once a year; that bath usually took place in May. • The monkey with the banana was jumping in his cage.

  11. Appositive • Renames the noun – or describes which one? • Always set apart with commas • Mexico City, the biggest city in the world, has many interesting archaeological sites. • Denver, the capital of Colorado, is the home of the Denver Broncos, the least dominant football team in the US.

  12. Participle • Verb used as an adjective ending in –ing or –ed. • Example: The children, playing with markers, made a mess of the kitchen floor.

  13. Absolute • Modifies the rest of the sentence. • Begins with personal pronoun set apart with commas • Examples: • His attitude great, the biker would rather go another fifty miles than sit around in the lodge.
