This document outlines a lesson plan for a 7th grade English class on identifying sentences and changing fragments into sentences. The lesson includes reviewing the concept, providing examples of fragments and how to make them into sentences, and having students work in groups to change fragments into sentences and present their work. The goal is for students to understand the difference between sentences and fragments and be able to demonstrate this competence in both oral and written communication.
