1 Sentence StructureType Simple Compound Complex Compound-complex Declarative Interrogative Exclamatory Imperative

2 Simple 1 independent clause that can contain...  Compound subject  My favorite students and I love English!  Compound verb  I read and run for fun.  Compound direct objects  I like books and shoes.  Compound indirect objects  I gave Coleter and Tyler detention for being tardy.  Variations of all the above  Kalin, Justin, and Zac tease and mock him and her constantly.

3 Compound 1 independent clause, FANBOYS 1 independent clause  I am tired of winter, so I am excited for spring! 1 independent clause; 1 independent clause  I love learning new concepts; I will always love learning. Technically, a sentence can have 4 independent clauses...  1 independent, cc 1 independent; 1 independent, cc 1 independent  I like hiking, and I also like running; however, I dislike swimming in lakes, and I dislike being cold.

4 Complex—The Dependent Clause Only 1 independent clause + 1 (or more) dependent clauses The Adjective Clause (AKA Relative) cannot move around. It MUST be next to the noun or pronoun it describes.  I like the dress that is black.  I finally like him, which is something altogether unexpected.  He will ask the girl who likes him to prom.  The book that is on the table, which is in the corner, belongs to me.  Here is the rule for that and which  Use that for restrictive clauses (essential)  Use which for nonrestrictive clauses (nonessential)

5 Adverb Clause The Adverb Clause (AKA Relative) usually starts with a subordinating conjunction (when, where, since, before, because). If you can switch it around in a sentence, it is an adverb (relative) clause.  Because it is Friday, I am excited.  I love it when the sun is shining.  After I came home, I made dinner.  I prefer picnicking where there are no mosquitoes.  I count sheep before I go to sleep.

6 Noun Clause Noun clause can take the place as subject, direct object, indirect object, object of preposition, predicate nominative.  Whether I like her or not is none of your concern.  I wonder how this ice cream flavor tastes.  I explained the directions to whomever was in charge.  What is so credible about The Incredibles is, well, how credible it is.

7 TRUE OR FALSE? A complex sentence only contains noun clauses, adverb, and adjective clauses.

8 Compound-complex 2 independent + 1(or more) dependent My name is Katness, and I love the boy who hunts with me; however, my actions say otherwise because I kissed Peeta, who is now under the impression that I prefer him to Gale. As an easterner, I did not know elk existed, which are beautiful animals, but I also did not expect to marry an Idahoan who kills these stalwart creatures.

9 Sentence Types Declarative  These are statements (declarations)  I am going to the store. Imperative  These are commands. The subject is the implied you.  Go to the store. Exclamatory  These are exclamations that should show powerful emotions.  I’m leaving!  I am so excited! Interrogative  Interrogate means to question, so these sentences are questions.  Why must you interrogate me so?

10 Assignment 1. Your mission is to create a 25 question quiz that assesses sentence structures and types. You can use old DGP sentences, create your own sentences, or pull them from magazines. You can ask multiple choice questions, fill-in-the-blanks, matching, identification, ect. 2. It may be a little easier to come up with questions if you base it around a theme. 3. You may work with a partner and divide and conquer, but you each submit the assignment.
