This SAT Sphere lesson focuses on essential SAT test topics in the Simple Sentences section. You'll build a strong understanding of core concepts, learn time-saving test-taking strategies, and apply your knowledge to realistic Digital SAT practice questions.
01
Introduction & Objectives
Welcome to Lesson 3: Simple Sentences. You’ll master the core building block of English—one independent clause—and learn to form clear affirmative, negative, and interrogative sentences that align with SAT conventions.
02
The Simple Sentence: One Independent Clause
Define a simple sentence as a complete thought with a subject and a predicate. Learn how this unit differs from fragments and multi-clause structures.
03
Lightning Round ⚡: Simple Sentence Core
Quick checks distinguishing complete simple sentences from fragments or run-ons.
04
Finding the Subject and the Main Verb
Practice locating the grammatical subject and main verb, ignoring prepositional phrases and descriptive add-ons that can distract you.
05
Lightning Round ⚡: Subjects & Verbs
Identify subjects and main verbs in short, SAT-style snippets.
06
Word Order in Statements: SVO and Complements
Review the standard Subject–Verb–Object order and how complements work after linking verbs to keep sentences clear and grammatical.
07
Lightning Round ⚡: SVO & Complements
Choose the arrangement that produces a clear, correct simple sentence.
08
Making Negatives: Do-Support, Be, and Modals
Form negatives correctly using do/does/did + not, place not after forms of be and modals, and recognize common contraction patterns.
09
Lightning Round ⚡: Negatives
Convert affirmatives to correct negatives and fix misplaced not.
10
Forming Questions: Yes/No and WH-
Build questions with auxiliary inversion and do-support; learn when WH- words replace the subject so no inversion is needed.
11
Lightning Round ⚡: Questions
Turn statements into correct yes/no and WH- questions; spot errors in inversion.
12
Simple Sentences with Compound Parts
See how a sentence stays simple even with compound subjects or verbs, as long as there is only one independent clause.
13
Lightning Round ⚡: Compound Parts
Identify when compound parts still form a single simple sentence and correct common pitfalls.
14
