1. Sentences Warm Up Look at this picture. Talk to your friend about the picture. You can talk about •
what you see,
•
what thoughts comes to your mind when you see the picture,
•
what sound and smell do you link with the picture
•
any memory that the picture brings to your mind.
Let’s do it Punctuate the given sentences. a. Is that a snowman b. Please be seated c. How curly your hair is d. The chicks are in the nest e. What a lovely day f. I saw the mice behind the drum We know Ø A sentence is a group of words with meaning Ø If the words are arranged in a different way, there may not be any meaning. Ø A group of words without any meaning cannot be called a sentence. Ø There are four types of sentences: declarative or assertive, imperative, exclamatory and interrogative sentences. Ø A sentence end with a punctuation mark. Let’s learn Let’s read what Chick and his cousin talked about the above picture. Chick: It’s a beautiful picture Sarah. The tall pine trees are lovely. Sarah: I see the mountains behind. Yes, the picture is beautiful indeed. Chick: I think about summer vacation when I see the train. What do you think Sarah?
Sarah: A train reminds me of the weekend trips to my grandparents’ house. Chick: I can hear the train sound. We eat fried and roasted nuts in the train. I can smell that. I can also hear the hawkers’ call. Sarah: I remember my first train journey. Did you also have similar thoughts when you saw the picture? Can you tell? Can you identify the subject in these lines from the conversation? Tick the correct option to answer the question. •
The tall pine trees are lovely.
•
I remember my first train journey.
The subjects are •
‘The tall pine tree’ in the first sentence and ‘I’ in the second sentence.
•
‘The tall pine tree’ in the first sentence and ‘train’ in the second sentence.
That’s great! You are right. Subject does the action in a sentence. In the second sentence, ‘I’does the action. Train is just an ‘adjective’ for the noun ‘journey. The subject is the person, place, animal or thing about which the sentence is written. The part of the sentence from the verb is the predicate. The verb is the main word of the predicate. Can you circle the subjects and underline the predicate in rest of the sentences in Chick and Sarah’s conversation? Let’s try A. Write the subjects of the sentences in the circle and the predicate in the rectangle. a. Birds fly. b. I am here. c. Read the story.
