About sentence structure and clauses notes
GoConqr OriginalSentence structure and clauses notes
These notes offer different ways into sentence building. Sentence Terminology gives examples of sentence types, while Improving Sentences introduces independent and dependent clauses. For a closer look at how parts of a sentence fit together, Subject and Predicate uses labelled examples.
Start with Sentence Terminology if you want to review the names used for sentence types. Then read Improving Sentences to compare clauses that can stand alone with those that depend on another clause. Relative Clauses is a useful next choice when you want to focus on how a clause defines a person or thing.
Make the notes work for you
Read a short section, then write an example of your own and compare it with the note. Return to the explanations when a term is unclear. If you want to check your understanding or see ideas laid out differently, switch to a quiz or mind map on the unit page. Pick a note and begin with one example.
Frequently asked questions
Which note is a good place to start?
Sentence Terminology is a good starting point for reviewing names for sentence types, with examples to read alongside the definitions. If you want to focus on clauses instead, Improving Sentences introduces independent and dependent clauses. Subject and Predicate is another option for looking at labelled parts of sentences.
What do the notes cover?
The notes cover sentence types, sentence building, subjects and predicates, phrases and clauses. Relative Clauses looks at defining relative clauses, while Compound sentences shows how independent clauses can be joined. Improving Sentences introduces the distinction between independent and dependent clauses.
Are the notes free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open and study, and you do not need an account. The notes were made by GoConqr users rather than by GoConqr. You can browse the list and open a note on the topic you want to review.
