In this first lesson, students will review diagramming the basics. The lesson will overview everything from Beginner Sentence Diagramming: subjects, linking verbs, transitive verbs, intransitive verbs, adjectives, adverbs, prepositional phrases, coordinating conjunctions, and compound parts. This single lesson is NOT enough for students to feel confident about diagramming all of these parts of speech. This is simply meant as a reminder of the things they should already know. 

 This lesson will cover interrogative and imperative sentences. There are four types of sentences, but declarative and exclamatory sentences are very straightforward. Students will learn how to diagram interrogative sentences by ensuring that the subject comes first in the sentence before they attempt to diagram. Students will learn about the implied "You" of imperative sentences. They will practice diagramming both. 

 In this lesson, students will learn about the very last part of speech that I haven't covered in other diagramming courses- interjections! Interjections and nouns of direct address are diagrammed the same because neither is grammatically related to the rest of the sentence. Students will practice adding this new technique into their diagrams. 

 This lesson will cover the difference between active and passive verbs. Writing instructors often ask students to use active voice in their writing, but many students don't understand what exactly that means! Seeing the difference in active vs passive verbs will help students identify and use active voice. Students will practice diagramming passive and active voice sentences.
