How to Write a complete Sentence and restate the question

What a sentence looks like! All sentences have a SUBJECT Person, Place, or Thing. (The teacher) All sentences have a PREDICATE What that person, place, or thing did. (went to school.) (The teacher went to school.)

Restate the Question Answers should be expressed as complete sentences, but also give some sort of context for their existence. Any stranger, upon randomly picking up your work, should be able to understand the initial question by reading your answer. Let’s look at an example.

What Would a Stranger Think? How would I know those things have anything to do with kangaroos unless you told me. I could assume many things about that list.

Restate the Question When you write answers you should always make sure to restate the question so that everyone who reads your answers knows exactly what you’re talking about.
