Language we will be talking about subjects and sentence fragments. (The subject of a sentence is whom or
what the sentence is about. Every sentence has a subject.) (A sentence fragment is a group of words that
does not tell a complete thought. Some sentence fragments can be fixed by adding a subject.) Also, all
types of sentences will continue to be reviewed as well as correct punctuation (ending marks, commas, and
capital letters when needed).
