This workbook provides valuable grammar instruction and hours of practice,
providing the student with a strong foundation in this traditionally difficult
area of English. The exercises included in this workbook will test the student's
ability to recognize and use correct grammatical form. The workbook
is in PDF format offering the student the ability to use it directly on the
computer or to print out a hardcopy.
Concepts covered include:
- Independent Clauses:
An independent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb,
and expresses a complete thought.
- Adjective Clauses:
An adjective clause is a subordinate clause that modifies a noun or pronoun.
It answers information questions like who, what, and where.
- Noun Clauses:
A noun clause is a subordinate clause that takes the place of a noun. Like
a noun, a noun clause acts as the subject or object of a verb, or the object
of a preposition.
- Appositives:
Nouns or noun phrases that are placed side-by-side and refer to the same person,
place, or thing are called appositives.
- Conditionals:
The conjunction "if" introduces a condition (something that may or may not
happen, depending on circumstances).
- Verb tenses:
Verb Tense is the name we give to the different forms of the verb.
- Irregular verbs:
Most past tense verbs in the English language end with "ed" but there are still lots
that do not. A handy list is included in this workbook.
- And much more!
