1. Grammar and Parts of Speech

2. Interjections
A word or phrase that expresses strong emotion, such as surprise, pleasure, or anger.
Interjections often stand on their own, and in writing they are usually followed by an exclamation mark rather than a full stop:
OW!
Hello!
How wonderful!

3. Verbs I’ll be back tomorrow.
Verbs are doing words. A verb can express a physical action, a mental action, or a state of being.
Examples:
He was walking to the mall
Ted hears the music on the radio
I’ll be back tomorrow.

4. Common Noun
Words that name people, places, things, or ideas.  But they are not the actual NAMES of people, place or things.
Examples:
People: mother, father, or baby.
Animals: lion, tiger, or bear.
Things: table, truck, or iPad.
Places: city, province, or Restaurant
Ideas: envy, love, hate, respect, or pride

5. Proper Noun
Provides us with the actual name of the person, place, thing, or idea. 
Proper nouns always begin with a capital letter.
People: James or Julie
Country: Canada
River: the Mississippi River
Restaurant: Applebee’s

6. Pronouns
Pronouns replace nouns. If we didn't have pronouns, we'd have to keep repeating our nouns and that would make our sentences very awkward and repetitive.
Instead of “Emma talked to Emma's child,” you might say “Emma talked to her child.”
Examples:
Tommy gave his poetry book to her.
The book contained pronouns, and it also contained verbs

7. Articles Articles are used to introduce nouns An, a, the Examples:
She was an artist.
The door is shut.

Adjectives are words that describe or modify another person or thing in the sentence.

This glass is breakable.

17. Semi-Colons
The semicolon joins two clauses, changing the sentence in combination with words like  ‘therefore’, ‘however’ or ‘on the other hand’.

The semicolon joins together two clauses that could each be separate sentences — creating a longer sentence.
John calls it football; Sam calls it soccer.

18. Sentence Fragments
Every complete sentence must have a subject and an object. The sentence must also express a complete thought. If a sentence is lacking one of these three essential components, it is a sentence fragment.

Correct: I am reading a book without a cover.

19. Run-on Sentences
A run-on is a sentence that really has two sentences (or complete ideas) incorrectly combined into one.
Run-ons can be fixed with correct punctuation such as, commas, colons, semi-colons, and periods.

Correct: I’m a woman; I am a truck driver.
I’m a woman, and I am a truck driver.
