First, I apologize for not posting by Tuesday. I was having some technical difficulties, but it is in the process of being fixed. Thank goodness! This week's activity involves simple subjects. This is the noun on which the sentence focuses. An example would be the following: The boy ran for a touchdown. The simple subject is "boy." He is the focus of the action "ran." Remember that most of the time the simple subject comes before the verb but sometimes, as in a question, it comes after the verb or a part of the verb. Don't forget that some imperative sentences don't have a simple subject written in the sentence but it is understood to be "you" since the order is given to "you." Now give these a try. Each is worth .2 X 15 = 3 points.1. My roof is being fixed from the storm.
