Learn Your Phrases!

Our first grammar topic of the year is phrases! You will need to know all about three types of phrases: the verb phrase, the infinitive phrase, and the prepositional phrase.

The Verb Phrase: This will be review for you! A verb phrase consists of one or more helping verbs and a main verb.

The Infinitive Phrase: For 7th grade, the infinitive phrase is super easy-peasy. It's just "to + verb." Examples: to write, to sing, to laugh, to sleep.

The Prepositional Phrase: You should remember these from last year! They start with a preposition and end with the nearest noun or pronoun.

What You Should Be Able to Identify
- Verbs (Action and Helping)
- Pronouns
- Nouns
- Prepositions

Those items are key!
