The document discusses parts of speech assignments done by students in the last class and upcoming homework assignments. It then defines the terms phrase, clause, and sentence. A phrase is a group of words that function as a single unit in a sentence's syntax. A clause is the smallest unit that can express a complete proposition. A sentence is a grammatical unit that expresses an independent statement, question, or request, often preceded and followed by pauses. The homework assignments include a Moodle project to complete a table on parts of speech and exercises from the workbook.
