INTRODUCTION Know the grammar of English is very important because is the approaches to learn English, every single word in the English grammar belongs to one of just eight word groups or parts of speech Parts of speech there are classifies by nouns, verbs, pronouns, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, and interjections. The grammar. In English also describes required sentence elements and varying sentence types, which are: declarative sentence, imperative sentence, interrogative sentence and Exclamatory sentence. Is necessary know about of the clauses, clause is a group of words with its own subject and verb. An independent (main) clause is a complete sentence; a dependent (subordinate) clause is part of a sentence. A dependent clause cannot stand alone And the active voice describes a sentence where the subject performs the action stated by the verb. In passive voice sentences, the subject is acted upon by the verb.

Part of speech The part of speech they are important because they show us how words are related to each other We need to use it, because help as at form the sentences and understand them, we need to learn how to use it, because it really helps to understand the sentences and to express them in a grammatically correct way sentences.
For example, let's take the words "chases," "dog" and "cat." Now, they are just words, they don't really tell us nothing But, as soon as we assign each word a role (a part of speech), and put them into a sentence, we actually get something meaningful: " the dog chases the cat." Subject = the dog Verb = chases Object = cat So as we see, the role of the word in a sentence (which part of speech it is) actually helps to understand the sentence.

-In this picture you can see that the sentences begin with a pronoun and verb in past participle and continuing with the different part of speech.
In this picture we can see a sentence that contains every part of speech.
In this picture you can appreciate the different part of speech. At the beginning of the sentences, there is a noun and verb in past participle. The preposition is modifying the noun.

Sentences structure
When we learn to write, they begin by learning about the four types of sentences and the role punctuation plays in determining and creating those different sentence types. Know the sentences structure is very important, because the structure sentences form the words that come to together to express complete thoughts. We need learn d and know how to use it, because the sentences structure they make it easy to understand the ideas and learn information. There are different types of sentences which are: The four types of sentences in the English language include: Declarative sentence Imperative sentence Interrogative sentence Exclamatory sentence
8
Four types of sentences A declarative sentence:
Simply makes a statement or expresses an opinion. In other words, it makes a declaration. This kind of sentence ends with a period.
An imperative sentence:
Gives a command or makes a request. It usually ends with a period but can, under certain circumstances, end with an exclamation point.
An interrogative sentence:
Asks a question. This type of sentence often begins with who, what, where, when, why, how, or do, and it ends with a question mark
An exclamatory sentence:
Is a sentence that expresses great emotion such as excitement, surprise, happiness and anger, and ends with an exclamation point.
9
A declarative sentence: Example:
-In this picture you can see that the sentence begins with an article and a noun. The adjective (blue) describes the color of the sky and the sentence ends with a period (.).
An imperative sentence: Example:
-In this picture you can see that the sentence begins with a verb (bring), an article (the) and a noun (pizza). And the sentence ends with a period (.), we use the imperative sentences to command.
10
An interrogative sentence: Example:
-In this picture you can see that the sentence begins with an auxiliary verb (did) and a pronoun. Also use a phrasal verb (turn off) and you can see the sentence ends with a question mark (?).
An exclamatory sentence: Example:
-In this picture you can see that the sentence begins with an interjection and an adjective. The adjective describes the noun (rose). And the sentence ends with an exclamation mark (!). 11
TYPES OF CLAUSE Like a phrase, a clause is a group of related words; but unlike a phrase, a clause has a subject and verb.
Dependent clause Independent clause Relative clause. Noun clauses subordinate clauses subordinate clauses Dependent clause
Has a subject and verb, expresses a complete thought and can stand alone as a coherent sentence
Independent clause
does not express a complete thought and therefore is not a sentence.
Relative clause
It used to join two English sentences, or to give more information about something.
Noun clauses
A noun clause functions as a noun in a sentence.
subordinate clause
A subordinate clause cannot stand alone as a sentence because it does not provide a complete thought.
Adverbial clauses
groups of words that function as an adverb, modifying an adjective, adverb, or verb phrase.
12
Dependent clause: cannot stand alone It is also known a simple sentence and has a subject and verb. Too are subordinating clauses that join ideas together shows the relationships between ideas. Because, although, after, where.
In this case the sentence not needed a complement.
RELATIVE PRONOUN Who, which and that are join two sentence to give more information to the first.
13
A noun clause is a clause that plays the role of a noun.
SUBORDINATE CLAUSE. Is used to add more informationto the sentences
ADVERBIAL CLAUSES. Adverbs of Time (when) Adverbs of Manner (how) Adverbs of Place (where)
14
ACTIVE AND PASIVE VOICE. Active voice
Pasive voice
the term active voice refers to a type of sentence or clause in which the subject performs or causes the action expressed by the verb. The passive voice is used to show interest in the person or object that experiences an action rather than the person or object that performs the action.

Conclution with this homework researched information in the internet, and we reinforced our knowledge by applying them to give an
explanation of each topic since these topics were already seen in the course of this cycle, and we managed to understand some grammatical rules that were not clear for lack of time or for not
attending some classes.
