Diagramming sentences

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

In an orderly fashion, go through diagramming sentences with your class. Beginning with a simple sentence and the placement of subject and verb, subsequent slides slowly add on more branches and lines with explanations of sentence types and parts of speech. A great visual tool to show sentence diagramming.
