Grammar: Sentence Structure and Types of Sentences

Definitions and examples of basic sentence elements.

The Mastering the Mechanics webinar series also describes required sentence elements and varying sentence types. Please see these archived webinars for more information.

Key: Yellow, bold = subject; green underline = verb, blue, italics = object, pink, regular font = prepositional phrase

Independent clause : An independent clause can stand alone as a sentence. It contains a subject and a verb and is a complete idea.

• I like spaghetti .
• He reads many books .

Dependent clause : A dependent clause is not a complete sentence. It must be attached to an independent clause to become complete. This is also known as a subordinate clause.

• Although I like spaghetti,…
• Because he reads many books,…

Subject : A person, animal, place, thing, or concept that does an action. Determine the subject in a sentence by asking the question “Who or what?”

• I like spaghetti.
• He reads many books.

Verb : Expresses what the person, animal, place, thing, or concept does. Determine the verb in a sentence by asking the question “What was the action or what happened?”

• The movie is good. (The be verb is also sometimes referred to as a copula or a linking verb. It links the subject, in this case "the movie," to the complement or the predicate of the sentence, in this case, "good.")

Object : A person, animal, place, thing, or concept that receives the action. Determine the object in a sentence by asking the question “The subject did what?” or “To whom?/For whom?”

Prepositional Phrase : A phrase that begins with a preposition (i.e., in, at for, behind, until, after, of, during) and modifies a word in the sentence. A prepositional phrase answers one of many questions. Here are a few examples: “Where? When? In what way?”

• I like spaghetti for dinner .
• He reads many books in the library .

English Sentence Structure

The following statements are true about sentences in English:

• H e obtained his degree.
• He obtained his degree .
• Smith he obtained his degree.
• He obtained his degree.
• He (subject) obtained (verb) his degree (object).

Simple Sentences

A simple sentence contains a subject and a verb, and it may also have an object and modifiers. However, it contains only one independent clause.

Key: Yellow, bold = subject; green underline = verb, blue, italics = object, pink, regular font =prepositional phrase

Here are a few examples:

• She wrote .
• She completed her literature review .
• He organized his sources by theme .
• They studied APA rules for many hours .

Compound Sentences

A compound sentence contains at least two independent clauses.  These two independent clauses can be combined with a comma and a coordinating conjunction or with a semicolon .

Key: independent clause = yellow, bold ; comma  or semicolon = pink, regular font ; coordinating conjunction = green, underlined

• She completed her literature review , and she created her reference list .
• He organized his sources by theme ; then, he updated his reference list .
• They studied APA rules for many hours , but they realized there was still much to learn .

Using some compound sentences in writing allows for more sentence variety .

Complex Sentences

A complex sentence contains at least one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. Dependent clauses can refer to the subject (who, which) the sequence/time (since, while), or the causal elements (because, if) of the independent clause.

If a sentence begins with a dependent clause, note the comma after this clause. If, on the other hand, the sentence begins with an independent clause, there is not a comma separating the two clauses.

Key: independent clause = yellow, bold ; comma = pink, regular font ; dependent clause = blue, italics

• Note the comma in this sentence because it begins with a dependent clause.
• Note that there is no comma in this sentence because it begins with an independent clause.
• Using some complex sentences in writing allows for more sentence variety .

Compound-Complex Sentences

Sentence types can also be combined. A compound-complex sentence contains at least two independent clauses and at least one dependent clause.

Key: independent clause = yellow, bold ; comma  or semicolon = pink, regular font ; coordinating conjunction = green, underlined ; dependent clause = blue, italics

• She completed her literature review , but she still needs to work on her methods section even though she finished her methods course last semester .
• Although he organized his sources by theme , he decided to arrange them chronologically , and he carefully followed the MEAL plan for organization . 
• T hey studied APA rules for many hours , and they decided that writing in APA made sense because it was clear, concise, and objective .
• Using some complex-compound sentences in writing allows for more sentence variety .
• Pay close attention to comma usage in complex-compound sentences so that the reader is easily able to follow the intended meaning.

Grammar Worksheets

Free grammar worksheets for teachers and students.

Welcome! This site contains free grammar and usage worksheets that I created to use in my own college classes. I teach English composition, and although my courses presuppose fluency in English and a command of standard American grammar, syntax, and punctuation, I find that students benefit from a review, or in some cases, an introduction, to these concepts.

Get All the Answers to Worksheets: 208 Pages.

If you would like all ( 20 different topics ) of the worksheets, along with the answers and tips on teaching (or learning) every topic, get the answers (with teaching tips) to every worksheet, a total of 208 pages of grammar and usage exercises, with answers and tips for teaching for $7.00.

I believe in the power of the written word. It has given me confidence; it has challenged me; it has entertained me; it has afforded me a decent living doing something I love. When I teach, my students sometimes tell me I sound like a preacher. I know I do. I hope this passion comes out in this website.

Note to Teachers: If what you see here is useful in your teaching, please use it. Use it passionately and with care, as much as you can. You won't like everything. You won't agree with everything, and that's okay. Improve upon what you can, use it with your students, let me know what works, and let me know what you improved upon. Thank you for visiting, and I hope you find the materials on this site useful.

These days, with COVID-19 concerns, many parents choose to home school their children. I hope that these worksheets help. In a home or classroom setting the worksheets may also work to differentiate instruction. Differentiated instruction can help more advanced students as well as students who may need assistance with certain basic grammatical concepts.

Note to Students: You won't find "free essays" here, or "custom essays." You'll find some material that can guide you to write your own essays, probably with better results than you would have if you hired someone to write essays for you. Write the essays yourself. You'll see topics, hints, notes on introductions, classic essays, contemporary essays, and yes, grammar worksheets. Read, learn, and write. Above all, believe in yourself and in your ability, with effort, to improve your English language and essay-writing skills.

The front of each grammar worksheet contains instruction on the topic with what I hope are clear examples. The second page, or back page when duplicated, contains exercises. These sheets require that the students actually write out their answers. In this manner, students get hand-written practice in producing grammatically and syntactically correct sentences. Some topics have additional worksheets with exercises only. I plan to add more topics and supplemental exercises over time.

This section includes a selection of essays for study and discussion. The selection of essays will expand with time. The selection includes both essays that are in the public doman and current essays. Each essay has its vocabulary builder, study questions, and a writing assignment.

Free to Use

The materials are free for any teacher, student, tutor, school, or school system to download, copy, distribute, and use in any manner. The worksheets are in PDF files, and can be accessed through the pages dealing with the specific grammar or usage topic. Please do not modify the worksheets. Also, please notify me if you link to this site or find this site useful.

Classroom Uses

College or Advanced Placement (AP) English teachers can use the grammar worksheets as supplements to their primary handbook or grammar text; college department chairs or directors of compostion programs can use them as emergency substitute plans or integrate them in their composition programs. More and more colleges and univerities frown on instructors simply cancelling a class because of illness. Each worksheet provides suitable material for a typical 50 - 75 minute class session.

The materials can be reproduced in quantities and stored in the department area. If an instructor calls in sick, a substitute can be assigned to teach one or two worksheets so that students use class time meaningfully.

Teachers of English as a Second Language (TESOL, ESOL, or ESL)

To my surprise, teachers of English as a second language have found some of the worksheets useful. Although I did not write them as ESL worksheets, they work well with advanced levels, what some programs might call Level 5 or Level 6. The needs of ESL students are different from the needs of native English-speaking high school and college students, but the principles are the same, as are the rules and conventions. If, as an ESL teacher, you find this site or these sheets useful, please share your comments.

Writing Labs or Writing Centers

College and university writing centers may copy the worksheets so that tutors work one on one with students on particular grammar or usage problems. Alternatively, the computers in the writing center may link to this site and students can download and print the sheets as they are needed. A variety of topics, including comma splices, run-on sentences, fused sentences, sentence fragments, apostrophe use, misplacecd/dangling participles, and nominalizations are covered.

Private Tutors and Homeschoolers

Private tutors and homeschoolers can link to this site or download the worksheets to work with individual students. They may also be assigned as homework.

Table of Contents

14 sentences with homework examples, how to use homework in sentences.

Homework is used to refer to assignments or tasks given to students by teachers to be completed outside of class. Homework is an important part of a student’s learning process, as it helps reinforce the concepts taught in class and allows students to practice applying their knowledge.

To use Homework in a sentence, you can say: – “I have a lot of homework to do tonight.” – “Make sure you complete your homework before tomorrow’s class.” – “She spends hours every night working on her homework assignments.”

In each of these sentences, Homework is used to describe the schoolwork that students are required to do outside of the classroom. It is important to remember that Homework is singular, so it is always followed by a singular verb.

When using Homework in a sentence, it is helpful to consider the context in which it is being used. Make sure to use the word appropriately in a sentence that makes sense and conveys the intended meaning. Practice using Homework in sentences to become more comfortable with its usage in everyday language.

In conclusion, homework plays a crucial role in reinforcing classroom learning and enhancing students’ understanding of concepts.

The meaning of "Having done my homework I will go home."

Having done my homework I will go home.

What does having mean in this sentence?

• absolute-clauses

• 3 The cited construction is common (though a little formal) in the past tense (Having done my work I went home) , but much less likely in relation to future events, where most people would say After I have done A, I will do B (or I'll do B once I've done A , etc.). –  FumbleFingers Commented May 23, 2015 at 16:01

The word 'having' in this sentence means that I have done my homework, therefore I can carry out the specified action (go home).

Having done/Having finished is an example of a perfect participle , indicating you have completed the past action, and can carry out the second action.

Have can be either a main verb (with several meanings, one of them is to posses something) or an auxiliary verb which is the case here. It doesn't have any meaning on its own; it is a part of grammatical construction called the perfect participle .

This construction is built with have in the -ing form + past participle. It is used to show that the first action was completed before the second.

At first I thought that it would sound more natural if the perfect participle was used with another clause in the past (not future) but I found this example published by University of Chicago Press (which I assume is a reputable publisher) and some other examples so I stand corrected.

Having done is the perfect participle and indicates a completed action.

You did your homework and now you will go home.
