Parts of a Sentence

Sentences can be broken into different parts. Two of the basic parts of a sentence are the subject and the predicate.

3

Subject

The subject tells who or what the sentence is about. It includes a noun (person, place, or thing).

4

Predicate

The predicate tells what is happening in the sentence. It includes a verb. The predicate helps to describe what the subject is like or what the subject is doing.

5

Example

Mr. Norton went to the coffee shop to get a latte.


Sentences need to have a subject and predicate. If it is missing either one, it is not a complete sentence.

6

Practice

Read the short phrases of words. Choose whether the phrase would be the subject or the predicate in a complete sentence.
