What is a Clause?

What is a phrase?
A group of words related to the subject
or predicate.

character, enraged the student.
Conjunctions
Join words, clauses, and phrases.
Examples

We ordered pizza but we couldn’t pay for it.
Conjunctions
After If When
Although Nor Whenever
And
As
Or

Where
Wherever
Because Since While
Before Though Yet
But
For
Unless
Until
Dependent Clauses
Cannot stand by themselves.
Do not express a complete thought.
Conjunction + Subject + Predicate
Examples

Because I care.
And you lose your cool.
Independent Clause
Can stand by itself or with a dependent.
Expresses a complete thought.
Subject + Predicate (no conjunction)
Examples

Fractions are fun.
Pizza tastes good.
Make Independent Clauses
1. Even if you’ve never been skiing before.
2. When I got home from school.
3. While Jan and I went to the park.
How Many Clauses?
1. Tito sang, and then Jermaine sang, and
finally Janet sang.
2. Cleaning out his book bag, the student
noticed an old PB&J sandwich.
Counting Clauses
A new clause starts when a new subject is
introduced.
Watch for conjunctions, but finding
subjects and predicates is more reliable.
Example
` Since Doug studied, he did well on the test
and was happy.
Practice
1. Write each sentence.
2. Underline the subjects.
3. Circle the predicates.
4. Draw a line between the clauses.
5. Write how many clauses are there.
1
I like cookies and cakes but ice-cream is
my favorite.
2
Tom, my neighbor’s brother, helped me
catch the newspaper boy and scold him.
3
When Janet and I went to the park, it
started raining so we went home.
4
Reading is fun but doing math problems is
boring so I hate math.
5
Craig, my old friend, did not pick up the
phone when I called because he was busy.
