Transcription de la présentation
  1. Sentence Basics Is your sentence structurally sound?

  2. Sentence Defined • A sentence consists of… • A subject • A predicate & it expresses a complete thought • The werewolf had a toothache • Subject = The werewolf • Predicate = had a toothache

  3. Just what is a subject and why do I have to have one? • Subject = the who or what doing or being in a sentence…it is what the other words in the sentence are gossiping about. • Example: • The werewolf had a toothache.

  4. And just what do you mean when you say predicate? • Predicate = the part of the sentence that has something to say about the subject. • Example: • The were wolf had a toothache.

  5. Can there be more than one? • Yes! • Compounds…more than one thing is going on and more than one is going on about it… • Compound Subject… • The werewolf or his wife wreaked havoc in the pantry. • Compound Predicate… • Mog had a baby and named her blaze.

  6. What is your sentence really saying? • Declarative • Makes a statement of fact, wish, intent or feeling • There are werewolves in the pantry. • Interrogative • Asks a question • Are there werewolves in the pantry? • Imperative • Gives a command, request or direction • Stop that werewolf.

  7. More types… • Exclamatory • Expresses a strong feeling • Look out! There are werewolves in the pantry. • Conditional • Expresses wishes or conditions contrary to fact • If there is a werewolf in the pantry then we have a serious problem.
