Week #8: Simple subjects and simple predicates

Week #7: Update- A shout out goes to Monica for her amazing use of word choice. Everyone did a nice job of describing their dream vacations. I hope you get to experience them someday.


Week #8: Simple Subjects and Simple Predicates
Directions: Read each sentence and decide the simple subject and simple predicate or each. Remember that some predicates have helping verbs. Please list the subject first and the predicate second in the answers you send me. Each is worth .15 X 20 = 3 bonus points total.
