They are complete thoughts and can stand on their own.  Fragments are missing either a subject or a verb. They depend on other information to make sense. Often fragments are called dependent clauses.  To figure out if a group of words is a sentence, ask the following questions: ◦ Who or what did or is something? (subject) ◦ What did they do? Or what are they? (verb)

The subject does the action!  What’s a subject? ◦ The subject of a sentence tells the noun (person, place, thing, or idea) that is doing or being something.  What is a verb? ◦ The verb is the action or state of being.

These are the patterns for a prepositional phrase: preposition + noun, pronoun, or clause preposition + modifier(s) + noun, pronoun, or clause We found the squirrel under the tree.
