The document discusses different types of sentences: simple sentences contain a subject and predicate and express a complete thought. Compound sentences contain two independent clauses joined by a coordinator such as "for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so". Complex sentences have an independent clause joined by one or more dependent clauses, which do not express a complete thought on their own and usually begin with a subordinating conjunction or relative pronoun. Compound-complex sentences contain two independent clauses and one dependent clause.

Simple subject and simple predicate
This document defines and provides examples of simple subjects and predicates in sentences. It explains that the subject is the person, thing, or idea a sentence is about and contains a simple subject, usually a noun or pronoun. The predicate tells something about the subject and contains a simple predicate or verb. Examples of simple subjects and predicates are provided to illustrate these concepts. Readers are then asked to identify the subject and predicate in sample sentences.
Simplecompoundcomplexcompound complexsentences-091117154353-phpapp02
This document defines and provides examples of different types of sentences: simple sentences containing a subject and predicate, compound sentences joined by coordinating conjunctions, complex sentences containing an independent clause and dependent/subordinate clause, and compound-complex sentences containing two independent clauses and one dependent clause. It instructs the reader to identify subjects, predicates, conjunctions, and dependent clauses in example sentences of each type.
3rd conditional
The document explains the three types of conditionals in English - the first, second, and third conditional. The first conditional uses "if + present/will" to talk about likely future events. The second conditional uses "if + past/would" for unlikely future events. The third conditional uses "if + past perfect/would have" to talk about hypothetical or imagined situations in the past. It provides examples of each conditional and exercises for the reader to practice forming third conditional sentences.
Prepositions and prepositional phrases
This document defines prepositions and provides examples of common prepositions and prepositional phrases. Prepositions indicate location in space, time, or possession and must have an object. Common prepositions include by, beside, between, near, under, over, inside, outside, above, below, behind, before, after, in, at, on, to, into, onto, through, of, and to. A prepositional phrase consists of a preposition followed by a noun, gerund, or clause. Examples of prepositional phrases are provided.
Idioms
The document describes an activity where a character named George goes through different idioms and their definitions. For each idiom, the user selects the correct definition from multiple choice options. Some of the idioms explained include "raining cats and dogs" which means to rain very heavily, "let the cat out of the bag" which means to tell something that is supposed to be a secret, and "open a can of worms" which means to do something that will cause problems. The purpose is to learn common idioms and their contextual meanings.
Gerunds
This document provides instruction on identifying and understanding the function of gerunds in sentences. It begins by defining gerunds as verbals that function as nouns and end in "-ing". Examples are then given of gerunds functioning as subjects, subject complements, direct objects, indirect objects, and objects of prepositions. Learners practice identifying gerunds and determining their function in various sentences through exercises. The document concludes with a review of gerund identification and function.
Proper Adjectives
Proper adjectives are formed from proper nouns and are always capitalized. They describe nouns that originate from or are associated with a specific place or nationality. Examples include Greek olives, South American game, North American land, Swiss watch, Mexican rug, Italian cooking, Spanish food, Russian people, Alaskan Highway, German cars, and Japanese watches.
Basic Subject- Verb Agreement
1. The document discusses the basic rules of subject-verb agreement in English grammar. It states that a singular subject takes a singular verb form while a plural subject takes a plural verb form.
2. Over 20 specific rules are provided with examples, such as compound subjects taking plural verbs; collective nouns being singular or plural depending on whether they refer to a group or individuals; and indefinite pronouns like "some" being singular or plural based on context.
3. Exceptions and tricky cases are explained, like nouns that are plural in form but singular in meaning. The document aims to help readers identify subjects and apply the correct verb form to avoid agreement errors.

Subjects and Predicates - Grade 4.ppt
A sentence contains a subject and a predicate. The subject is the doer of the action and the predicate contains the verb, which is the action or condition. A sentence expresses a complete thought while a fragment is missing an element needed to be a complete sentence. The predicate includes the verb and any words that follow it. The subject is the doer of the action and can be a noun or pronoun.
Prepositional Phrase
The document provides information about prepositional phrases including:
- A prepositional phrase consists of a preposition, its object, and any modifiers of the object.
- The object of the preposition is a noun or pronoun that completes the prepositional phrase.
- Prepositional phrases can modify nouns, verbs, and complete clauses.
Independent-and-Dependent-Clauses (1).ppt
The document discusses independent and dependent clauses. An independent clause can stand alone as a sentence, while a dependent clause cannot. It provides examples of each and explains how dependent clauses are often marked by dependent marker words like "when" or "because". The document also discusses how to properly connect and punctuate independent and dependent clauses using coordinating conjunctions, independent marker words, and punctuation like commas and semicolons.
Infinitives as adjectives and adverbs
This document discusses the different functions of infinitives as adjectives and adverbs. It provides examples of infinitives used as adjectives, which always follow and describe nouns, and as adverbs, which usually occur at the beginning or end of sentences and describe verbs. The document also provides a test to identify adverbial infinitives by inserting "in order" in front of the infinitive. It concludes with sentences for the reader to practice identifying the function of infinitives.
Active and Passive Voice
This document defines and differentiates between the active and passive voices. It states that the active voice is more common and has the subject performing the action on the object. The passive voice has the object as the subject receiving the action. It provides examples of converting between active and passive sentences by changing which element is the subject and object.
Reflexive Pronouns
Reflexive pronouns are used to indicate that both the subject and object of a sentence receive the action of the verb. A table lists the personal pronouns and their corresponding reflexive pronouns. Examples are given to illustrate their use including "I cut myself in the kitchen" and "He hurt himself when he fell off his skateboard." Notes provide guidance on using yourself/yourselves correctly and when reflexive pronouns can and cannot be used.
subject and predicate
The document discusses the key elements of subjects and predicates in sentences. It defines a subject as the person or thing a sentence is about, and the predicate as what is said about the subject. It provides examples of finding the simple subject and predicate, as well as compound subjects and predicates. The document aims to teach the reader to identify these grammatical elements in different types of sentences.

Third conditional
The Third Conditional is a grammatical structure used to talk about hypothetical situations in the past that did not happen. It uses the structure "If + Subject + had + past participle verb" to describe the condition, followed by "Subject + would + have + past participle verb" to describe the possible result. Examples include "If I had bought a lottery ticket, I would have won!" and "I would have gone to the beach if it had rained yesterday."
Infinitives
Infinitives are verbals formed with "to" plus a verb that can function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs. When used as adjectives and adverbs, infinitives usually precede nouns and pronouns in sentences. Infinitives can be used as subjects, direct objects, objects of prepositions when functioning as nouns. When used as adjectives, infinitives modify nouns and when used as adverbs, they modify verbs or adjectives. Infinitive phrases can also function as nouns or adjectives. Infinitives should not be confused with prepositional phrases which are "to" plus a noun or pronoun.
Simple, Compound, Complex Sentences
This document defines and provides examples of simple, compound, and complex sentences. A simple sentence contains one subject and one predicate. A compound sentence contains two or more simple sentences joined by a conjunction like "and" or "but." A complex sentence contains one simple sentence and one or more dependent clauses.
Introduction to verbs
The document discusses verbs and their role in sentences. It provides examples of sentences and asks the reader to identify the verb in each one. It also prompts the reader to add verbs to incomplete sentences.

Everyone should wear a properly fitted bicycle helmet every time they ride to protect their head and brain from injury. A bicycle helmet should be specifically designed for cycling with a CPSC safety certification, fit snugly and level on the head without tilting, have wide straps that fasten securely under the chin, and replaced after any fall or damage to the helmet. Wearing a helmet correctly is important for safety.
Primary English | Forming Simple Sentences
Knowing how to construct a sentence is so important! You need to construct sentences when you are writing your composition and situational writing. In addition, you should try your best to answer comprehension questions with complete and grammatically correct sentences too.
What exactly makes up a simple sentence? Today, we are sharing with you a presentation that we are using in the Lil’ but Mighty classroom about simple sentences. In this presentation, you will learn
- What a Subject is
- What a Verb is
- What an Object is
- What makes a simple sentence
We use these slides to emphasise to our children how a complete sentence can be formed before they write a composition or complete their comprehension practices. This presentation will be a great resource for teachers who wish to teach or revise a simple sentence structure with their kids. Parents are definitely welcome to use them too.
We hope you will enjoy this teaching resource! Have a Merry Christmas!
Sentences
This document discusses different types of sentences: simple, compound, and complex. It provides examples and explanations of each. For simple sentences, it notes they contain a subject and verb and can have compound subjects or verbs. Compound sentences contain two independent clauses joined by a conjunction. Complex sentences contain an independent clause and dependent clause, with the dependent clause introduced by a subordinating conjunction. It provides guidance on punctuation for complex sentences based on the placement of the dependent clause.
Simple Complex Compound Sentences
The document defines and provides examples of simple, compound, and complex sentences. A simple sentence contains one independent clause with no subordinate clauses. A compound sentence contains two or more independent clauses with no subordinate clauses. A complex sentence contains one independent clause and one or more subordinate clauses, with the subordinate clause being dependent on the independent clause.
Simple,compound and complex sentences
This document defines and provides examples of simple, compound, and complex sentences. Simple sentences contain one independent clause with a subject and verb. Compound sentences join two independent clauses with a coordinator like "and" or "but." Complex sentences contain an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses joined by a subordinating conjunction like "because" or "when." The purpose is to help ESL/EFL learners identify basic sentence structures.
Types of Verbs
There are three types of verbs: action verbs, linking verbs, and helping verbs. Action verbs show physical action and movement, such as run, hide, and walk. Linking verbs connect or link the subject to a noun or adjective in the predicate, such as is, are, and been. Helping verbs help the main verb express tense and voice and need an action verb, such as will, should, and have.
Types of Verbs
Verbs express actions, states of being, or conditions. There are different types of verbs including action verbs, linking verbs, helping verbs, present/past/future tense verbs, transitive verbs, and intransitive verbs. Verbs tell what the subject does or is. Key types are action verbs which show physical or mental actions, linking verbs which link the subject to a predicate expressing a state of being, and helping verbs which help express meaning along with a main verb.
Abstract Noun Powerpoint Game
The document discusses two types of nouns: concrete nouns and abstract nouns. Concrete nouns refer to people, places, or things that can be detected by the senses, while abstract nouns refer to more abstract concepts that cannot be detected by physical senses, such as emotions or ideas. The document then provides examples of concrete and abstract nouns and instructs the reader to stand up or sit down depending on whether the noun shown is concrete or abstract.
Sentence Structure Ppt
The document discusses varying sentence structure to make writing more interesting. It provides examples of simple sentences with one clause, compound sentences with two independent clauses joined with coordinating conjunctions or semicolons, and complex sentences with one independent and one dependent clause. The second paragraph is more effective because it uses a variety of sentence structures including compound and complex sentences rather than just simple sentences.
Four Types Of Sentences
There are four types of sentences: declarative, imperative, exclamatory, and interrogative. Declarative sentences make statements, imperative sentences are commands or requests, exclamatory sentences express emotion, and interrogative sentences ask questions. The document provides examples of each sentence type and includes a quiz to test understanding.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
