·       S answer the ex again, I write the words and their numbers on the board.

·       Write ( show) this sentence:

When they died, they sank to the bottom of the sea.

·       Ask: How many sentences are there? (One), yes there is only one sentence but the sentence has two clauses:

  1.  A time clause

  2.  A main clause.

·       Say that a clause must have a verb and a subject. Sometimes, it has other words as well.

·       Ask: Which words are in the time clause and which words are in the main clause?

·       Use a coloured chalk to separate the clauses as:

                                           time clause                    main clause

When they died, they sank to the bottom of the sea.

·       S say the subject and the verb in each clause:

                                             time clause                    main clause

                                         S      V        S     V

When they died, they sank to the bottom of the sea

·       S repeat the sentence  many times.

·       Ask S to change the sentence so that the main clause comes first, before the time clause as:

They sank to the bottom of the sea when they died.

·       Say that the meaning of the sentence has not change but their is a comma in one sentence.
