Module 9 lesson 9.1
This document reviews sentence types including complete sentences, sentence fragments, and run-on sentences. It defines a sentence as having a subject, verb, and expressing a complete thought. Sentence fragments are groups of words that are missing either a subject, verb, or do not express a complete thought. Run-on sentences incorrectly join two independent clauses without proper punctuation. Examples are provided of fragments and run-on sentences, along with their corrected versions.
Module 5 lesson 5.3
A sentence fragment is an incomplete sentence that lacks either a subject, predicate, or does not communicate a complete thought. Examples of fragments include "Saw that it was time to leave" which lacks a subject and "The king and all his men" which lacks a predicate. Dependent clauses like "Before the test began" and "As soon as you get home" are also fragments because a clause cannot stand alone as a sentence. To fix fragments, an independent clause must be added to form a complete sentence.
Module 6 lesson 6.1
This document provides information about three types of sentences: simple sentences, which have one independent clause; compound sentences, which join two independent clauses with a coordinating conjunction; and complex sentences, which have one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. Examples of each type are given along with explanations of when each type should be used. The document aims to help writers understand and employ different sentence structures to vary their writing.
Sentence Vs. Fragment
A complete sentence requires a subject, a predicate, and a complete thought that can stand alone. A sentence fragment is incomplete because it is missing a subject, verb, or both, or does not express a complete thought on its own. Dependent clauses are fragments that have a subject and verb but do not express a complete thought independently and need to be combined with an independent clause to form a complete sentence. Providing additional context or information can fix sentence fragments by making the thought complete.
Clauses
The document discusses the different types of clauses that can be used in sentences, including independent clauses that can stand alone as complete sentences, and dependent clauses that require more information and cannot stand alone. It provides examples of simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences. It also describes the different types of dependent clauses such as noun clauses, adverb clauses, and adjective clauses, and how they function within a sentence.
Verb HD
The document defines verbs and their types. It discusses verbs as words that describe actions, states of being, or occurrences. It outlines six main types of verbs: 1) action vs non-action, 2) transitive vs intransitive, 3) regular vs irregular, 4) main vs auxiliary, 5) finite vs non-finite, and 6) linking verbs. Examples are provided to illustrate the differences between each verb type.
Understanding fragments and runons
This document discusses fragments and run-on sentences. It defines a fragment as an incomplete sentence missing a subject, verb, or complete thought. Run-ons are formed when two complete sentences are joined incorrectly without proper punctuation. There are two types of run-ons - fused sentences with no punctuation and comma splices joined only by a comma. The document provides examples and ways to correct fragments and run-ons, such as adding missing elements, attaching to another sentence, or using punctuation like periods, semicolons, commas with conjunctions, or dependent words.
Subject and Predicate
Teaching Subject and Predicate can be very easy and very complicated but really it is just all about how you relate the information to the students :)

Subject and Predicate
Teaching Subject and Predicate can be very easy and very complicated but really it is just all about how you relate the information to the students :)
Parts of a Sentence
This document defines the key parts of a sentence and provides examples of how to identify them. It explains that a sentence contains a subject and predicate, with the subject including a simple subject and the predicate containing a simple verb. It also describes the four types of complements that can be included in the predicate: direct object, indirect object, predicate nominative, and predicate adjective. Steps are provided for identifying all parts of a sentence, including compound elements.
Transitive intransitive verbs
This document discusses the difference between transitive and intransitive verbs. Transitive verbs are verbs that take a direct object, such as "broke the window." Intransitive verbs do not take a direct object and describe actions where nothing receives the action, such as "cried." It is important to understand the difference, as many students and even native speakers can confuse whether a verb is transitive or intransitive. The document provides examples of common transitive and intransitive verbs and warns that prepositional phrases and adverbs do not make an intransitive verb transitive.
Phrasal verb in use
1) The document defines phrasal verbs as verbs combined with prepositions or adverbs that modify the verb's meaning. It provides examples like "give up" and discusses different types of phrasal verbs.
2) Phrasal verbs are divided into categories like intransitive, transitive, separable, and inseparable depending on whether they take an object and where the object is placed.
3) In addition to verb-particle combinations, the document notes some verbs can be used with both particles and prepositions, forming three-part verbs. It provides a list of common phrasal verbs with examples.
Finite and Non-finite Verbs
The document discusses different types of verbs in English including finite and non-finite verbs. Finite verbs change form based on subject and tense, while non-finite verbs do not. There are three main types of non-finite verbs: infinitives, gerunds, and participles. Infinitives can be simple or gerundial. Gerunds act as nouns. Participles have characteristics of adjectives and verbs and come in present, past, and perfect forms. Examples are provided to illustrate the uses and forms of these different verb types.
All forms of verbs
This document discusses the different forms of verbs in English including:
- Infinitive form (to work), base form (work), simple past form (worked), past participle form (worked), present participle/progressive form (working)
- Present simple/3rd person singular form (works)
- Exceptions for the verb "be" which has 9 forms
- Irregular verbs which do not follow the regular patterns to form past/past participle
- Helping/auxiliary verbs which are used to change tense, voice, mood or type and include primary verbs (do, have) and modal verbs (can, may).
Verb Pattern
The document discusses various types of verb patterns in English. It explains that verbs can be classified as finite or non-finite. Finite verbs show tense and voice, and depend on factors like the subject and helping verbs. Non-finite verbs do not show tense and can function as nouns, verbs, adjectives or prepositions. Specifically, it covers infinitives, gerunds, participles, and the differences between finite and non-finite verbs.
Adverbial Clause (4th Group English Education Department Of IAIN Salatiga)
This document discusses adverbial clauses. It defines adverbial clauses as groups of words that play the role of an adverb and contain a subject and verb. It notes that adverbial clauses can modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs by answering questions like why, when, where, how, how much. The document also categorizes different types of adverbial clauses such as time, manner, place, reason, condition, concession, frequency, degree, probability, interrogative, and relative. It provides examples for each type and lists sources for more information.
Dependent & subordinate clauses
This document discusses different types of clauses in English sentences. An independent clause can stand alone as a complete thought and sentence, while a subordinate clause does not express a complete thought on its own and must be part of a larger sentence. Subordinate clauses are introduced by subordinating conjunctions like "when", "because", and "before", and cannot stand alone as fragments without an independent clause. Determining if a clause is independent or subordinate can be tested by adding "I believe that..." before it - if it sounds like a complete sentence, it is independent, and if it sounds like a fragment, it is subordinate.
Infinitives
This document discusses infinitives and how they function in sentences. It explains that infinitives can be used as subjects, objects, and subject complements, similar to gerunds. However, unlike gerunds, infinitives cannot be used as objects of prepositions. It provides examples of infinitives functioning in different roles in sentences and lists common verbs that are followed by infinitives. The document also discusses the different types of infinitives and how their meaning can change based on tense or voice.
What are verbs
Verbs are words that describe actions or states of being and are essential to forming sentences. They can convey physical actions, like "run" or "fight", or states of being, like "be" or "seem". Verbs always have a subject and change form depending on tense, unlike other words. Verbs are classified as either helping verbs, such as "be", "have", and "do", which assist main verbs, or main verbs which convey meaning on their own like "teach" or "eat". Modal helping verbs further modify main verbs to express necessity or possibility.
Phrases,clauses and Sentances
This document defines and provides examples of phrases, clauses, and sentences. It explains that phrases are parts of sentences that do not contain finite verbs, and that there are noun phrases, verb phrases, and prepositional phrases. Clauses are parts of sentences that contain a subject and verb, and can be independent or dependent. Sentences are the basic unit of language that express a complete thought by following grammatical rules. There are simple sentences with a subject and verb, compound sentences with two independent clauses joined by a conjunction, and complex sentences with an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses.
Types of verbs according to form
Verbs can be classified according to their form and type. According to form, verbs have 4 forms: the base form (Vbase), the third person singular form (Vs), the past tense form (Ved), and the present participle form (Ving). Verbs are also classified as regular or irregular depending on whether they form their past tense and past participle with a "d" suffix. According to type, verbs can be single word verbs, phrasal verbs which are combinations of a verb and preposition or particle, dynamic verbs which indicate actions and can be used in continuous tenses, or stative verbs which indicate states of being and cannot be used in continuous tenses. Some verbs have both dynamic
Noun clauses
The document discusses different types of clauses including independent clauses, dependent clauses, and noun clauses. It provides examples of noun clauses introduced by question words like who, what, when, where, why and whether/if. It also discusses reported speech and how verb forms change in noun clauses reporting what someone said. Finally, it covers using the subjunctive verb form in that-clauses and the use of -ever words to indicate "any".
Clauses power point
The document defines and distinguishes between different types of clauses:
- Phrases contain a group of words with a noun and verb but do not express a complete thought.
- Independent clauses can stand alone as a complete sentence. Dependent clauses cannot stand alone as they are incomplete and require an independent clause.
- Dependent clauses are introduced with subordinating conjunctions like "although", "before", and "because" and require an independent clause to complete the sentence.
Presentation of verb
This document provides an overview of verbs in English. It begins by introducing the group members and topic of verbs. It then defines a verb as a word that expresses action or state of being. The document outlines the main types of verbs as action, state, and being. It provides examples for each type and explains how to identify the verb in a sentence. Additionally, it discusses transitive and intransitive verbs, direct and indirect objects, and reflexive verbs. In under 3 sentences, the document defines verbs, identifies the main verb types, and discusses how to identify verbs and their objects in sentences.
Pronouns
The document discusses the different types and usage of pronouns. It outlines 7 rules for using pronouns including that subject pronouns are used as the subject of the sentence, object pronouns are used everywhere else, and possessive pronouns show ownership without apostrophes. It also lists the 9 types of pronouns such as personal, possessive, and reflexive pronouns.
Adverbs
Adverbs can modify verbs, adjectives, other adverbs, and sentences. They usually appear immediately before the word they modify or at the end of a clause or sentence. Some common types of adverbs include adverbs of place and time, frequency, expectation, focus, degree, manner, viewpoint, and comment. Adverbs have different positions depending on their function and can change the focus and meaning of a sentence.
010 Verbals
The document defines and provides examples of different types of verbals: gerunds, participles, and infinitives. Gerunds end in "-ing" and function as nouns. Participles can be present or past tense and function as adjectives. Infinitives are formed with "to" plus the base verb form and can function as adjectives, adverbs, or nouns. The document explains how each verbal type is formed and provides their grammatical functions.
Gerunds and Infinitive
Gerunds are verb forms ending in "-ing" that function as nouns. They can serve as subjects, objects, or subject complements within sentences. Common uses of gerunds include as subjects like "swimming is exercise" or objects like "I enjoy swimming." Gerunds are not part of any verb tense and instead are used as nouns.
Transitive and intransitive
The document discusses transitive and intransitive verbs. A transitive verb has a direct object that receives the action of the verb, while an intransitive verb does not have a direct object. To determine if a verb is transitive or intransitive, ask what or whom after the verb. If there is a direct object, the verb is transitive; if there is no direct object, the verb is intransitive. Examples are provided to illustrate transitive verbs like "wrote" and "shook" as well as intransitive verbs like "applauded" and "shook." Verbs are complex but essential to sentences.
Module 7 lesson 7.1
This document discusses different types of clauses that can be used to form complex sentences. It defines independent clauses as sentences on their own and dependent clauses as those that are not complete sentences alone. Complex sentences contain one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses, which can be placed in any order. Reason and condition subordinators like "because", "since", and "if" are described for expressing cause and establishing conditions. Examples are provided to illustrate the proper use of verb tenses with different subordinate conjunctions for forming complex sentences.
Present tense notes for wix
The document discusses the present perfect tense in English grammar. It is used to show an action that began in the past and has relevance to the present. The present perfect is formed using "has/have" plus the past participle verb. It can be used for actions that happened at an unspecified time before now, to describe experiences or changes over a period of time, and to indicate that an expected action has not occurred.

Kinds of Sentences According to Use and Structure
This powerpoint presentation summarizes the four main types of sentences according to their use and structure. It begins by defining what a sentence is and provides examples of the four types of sentences according to use: declarative, interrogative, imperative and exclamatory. It then explains the four types of sentences according to structure - simple, compound, complex and complex-compound sentences. Various examples are also given to illustrate each type of sentence. The presentation concludes with activities for students to practice identifying different sentence types.
English Clauses
This document provides information about different types of clauses. It defines an independent clause as one that can stand alone as a complete sentence, while a dependent clause cannot stand alone and needs to be attached to an independent clause. There are three types of dependent clauses: noun clauses, adjective clauses, and adverb clauses. Noun clauses function as subjects, objects or complements. Adjective clauses modify or describe nouns and pronouns. Adverb clauses modify verbs, adjectives or other adverbs. The document includes examples and exercises to illustrate the different clause types.
Modals of necessity
Modals of necessity such as must, have to, and have got to express that something is obligatory or required rather than optional. Must is the strongest and most common in writing, while have got to is more informal in speech. Have to can be used in all tenses and for questions to indicate necessity. These modals are followed by the base form of a verb to show that an action is necessary or prohibited in the present or future.

The tudors presentation
Henry VII established a wealthy and powerful English monarchy focused on business over war. Henry VIII broke England from the Catholic Church and made the Church of England independent in order to gain control over the Church. During this Tudor period, England experienced a great artistic renaissance. Henry VIII had six wives and divorced several in order to obtain a male heir after his first wife Catherine of Aragon failed to produce a surviving son. Upon Henry's death, he left the throne to his three children - Mary, Elizabeth, and Edward.
Module 9 lesson 1
This document provides information on writing a narrative paragraph, including its key components and structure. A narrative paragraph tells a story or event in chronological order and must have a central idea, characters, plot, and description. It should also establish the setting. A good narrative paragraph includes background information to set the scene, a recounting of the story/event in three stages (beginning, middle, end), and a conclusion. Transitional words are used to link events in the narrative.
English 2 - Module 8 lesson 1
This document provides guidance on writing cause and effect paragraphs. It discusses the purpose of cause and effect paragraphs, which is to understand why something occurs or the results of an event. It also discusses achieving unity and coherence in these paragraphs. There are two common organizational patterns - effect to cause, where the topic sentence introduces an effect and then discusses causes, and cause to effect, where the topic sentence introduces a cause and then discusses effects. The document provides sample paragraphs and outlines for each pattern as well as vocabulary words that are useful for linking causes and effects.
English 2 - Module 7 lesson 3
The document discusses linking problems with solutions in academic writing. It explains that the problem paragraph should introduce the problem, while the solution paragraph should introduce the solution. The supporting sentences then show how the solution will solve the problem and suggest using phrases like "One answer is..." and "A second/third/final answer is..." to introduce each solution.
English 2 - Module 7 lesson 2
The document discusses conditional structures and their use in discussing problems and solutions. It provides examples of real conditional sentences using "if" to talk about problems that could occur if certain actions are taken, such as factories dumping waste or people eating sick fish. The document then provides a model text discussing the problem of deforestation, stating that scientists say the world's climate may change, floods may become more common, and animals will die if deforestation continues. A solution of using less paper is then proposed, saying that fewer trees will be cut if less paper is used.
English 2 - Module 7 lesson 1
The document discusses problem/solution writing and provides examples. It explains that problem/solution paragraphs first describe an issue and then propose ways to address it.

The second paragraph offers a solution of using less paper by reducing, reusing and recycling paper products to cut down on tree harvesting.
English 2 - Module 6 lesson 3
This document discusses two methods for organizing comparison/contrast paragraphs: point-by-point and block. In the point-by-point method, each point of the first topic is compared to the corresponding point of the second topic. The block method discusses all information about the first topic, then all information about the second topic. Examples illustrate a paragraph using each method to compare difficulties faced by boys and girls in society. An outline shows how the topics could be broken down for each organizational structure.
English 2 - Module 6 lesson 2
This document discusses comparison and contrast techniques. It provides examples of comparing products and prices when shopping or comparing job offers.

It identifies language signals used in comparisons like "likewise", "also", "too", and parallel structure using "both...and".
E3 m6.2. Concluding paragraphs for essays
This document discusses the importance of conclusions in essays. It states that a good conclusion should summarize the main points, restate the thesis using different words, and make a final comment about the main idea. The conclusion should not introduce new ideas, but rather restate or further discuss ideas from the essay. An example conclusion is provided that restates the thesis statement and makes a final comment about the essay's main idea.
E3 m6.1. Introductory paragraphs
The document discusses introductions to essays. An introduction should be 5-10 sentences and catch the reader's interest. It provides background on the topic and states the main thesis. The introduction generally moves from general ideas to more specific ones, culminating in the thesis statement. A strong introduction clearly introduces the topic, gives information about it, and states the thesis. A weak introduction may provide too much or too little information or discuss multiple topics. An introduction can be made more interesting through facts, personal stories, examples or quotations.
E3 m5.2 Evaluating an outline
The document provides guidance on evaluating an essay outline by checking it for organization, support, and topic development before writing the essay. It recommends having a friend or teacher also check the outline and lists checkpoints to ensure the paragraphs are in the right order, supporting points and details are in the right order, there are enough main ideas and supporting details to develop the thesis statement, and each detail relates back to the topic.
E3 m5.1 Outlining an essay
The document provides information about outlining essays. It explains that an outline lists the information that will be included in the essay and shows the organization of ideas. An outline begins with the thesis statement, includes the main topics in body paragraphs, and ends with the conclusion.

A model is presented that outlines a paragraph about Costa Rica, including a topic sentence, two reasons supported by examples each. Transition signals are also covered for introducing reasons and examples in sentences and paragraphs.
E3 m4.4 Strong thesis statements
This document discusses how to write a strong thesis statement. A strong thesis statement gives the author's opinion on a topic and can be discussed and explained with supporting ideas. Good thesis statements do not merely state facts or present both sides of an argument equally without taking a stance. A strong thesis statement makes the author's position clear and can be argued or expanded upon.
E3 m4.3 Thesis statements
The document discusses thesis statements and their purpose. A thesis statement is usually found at the end of an introductory paragraph and tells the main idea of an essay. It can express an opinion or state an argument or fact to be defended or explained. The last paragraph identifies the thesis statement for the given text as "The English language came to be the world language that is today by events that happened hundreds of years ago."
E3 M4 Essay example
The document discusses the differences between American and British English. It notes that while the two forms of English are generally mutually intelligible, they have developed differences in areas like pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary and idioms over the centuries since they diverged. Examples are given of words that have different meanings or where each variant uses a different word altogether. Idioms also sometimes differ by one or two words between the two versions. Overall, however, speakers of American and British English can usually understand each other with little difficulty despite the variations that have emerged over time.
E3 m4.1 What is an essay
An essay is composed of at least three paragraphs that discuss a single topic and main idea. The three main parts are the introduction, body, and conclusion. The introduction provides context and a thesis statement. The body paragraphs explain and support the thesis. The conclusion restates the thesis and summarizes the supporting ideas. Proper essay formatting includes double spacing, 1-inch margins, and indenting the first line of each paragraph.
English 2- Module 4 Lesson 1
This document provides guidance on writing descriptive paragraphs about places and people. It emphasizes using space order and specific details to paint a vivid picture for the reader. Space order involves describing a setting from one area to another, such as from top to bottom or left to right. Specific details allow the reader to visualize what is being described rather than relying on vague terms. Sample topic sentences, paragraphs and outlines are provided as models to demonstrate how to structure an effective description.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Module 7 lesson 7.12
- 1. So far, you have learned that… Information taken from: Hogue, A. (2008). First steps in academic writing. Longman: N.Y.
- 2. ! An independent clause is a sentence by itself. ! A dependent clause is not a sentence by itself. ! A complex sentence is one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. ! The clauses can be in any order. ! Put a comma after a dependent clause when it starts the sentence.
- 3. You already practiced writing complex sentences with time subordinators (after, as soon as, before, until, when, whenever, while): ! I will do the practice after I finish this presentation. ! As soon as I finish, I will review my notes. ! Before I start the practice, I will check my notes. ! I will see it until everything is clear ! I ask my teacher when I don’t understand.
- 5. Reason subordinators tell why something happens. The ones that you will use in this module are: because and since. She didn’t go to the party because she was sick. She didn’t go to the party since she was sick. Because Julia is good at English, she wants to be an English teacher. Since Julia is good at English, she wants to be an English teacher.
- 6. Here is something that you need to know about because and since. Because and since have the same meaning. You can use them with no difference in their use. I passed the exam because I studied. I passed the exam since I studied. Since I learned about punctuation, I write better sentences. Because I learned about punctuation, I write better sentences.
- 7. She is late because she missed the bus. She is late since she missed the bus. Because she missed the bus, she is late. Since she missed the bus, she is late.
