Exercises 1 and 2

These exercises are graded practice in matters of grammar and mechanics that you complete after we have covered the material in class. You should review the "Recap" summary at the end of the appropriate chapters (6 and 7) and look back over the chapters in full before completing the exercises.

Exercise 1: Complete the "Chapter Quick Check: Subjects and Verbs" exercise on p. 136 and also the "Summary Exercise: Subjects and Verbs" on p. 137. Follow instructions in the text carefully. I will hand out photocopies of these pages in class, for you will need to turn them for grading in Friday.

Exercise 2: Complete the "Chapter Quick Check: Sentence Fragments" exercise on p. 155 and also the "Summary Exercise: Sentence Fragments" on pp. 156-57. For these two items you will need to write your answers on separate paper (handwritten is okay, though typed is even better).
