o intervening words, phrases, and clauses
with, together with, including, accompanied by, in addition
to, or as well

4. Analysis
Open the class for queries and clarification
If all are clarified, ask the following question:

conversations?
5. Abstraction
Ask the students the following questions:
o Ask students about what would happen if the subject and verb
didn’t agree.
o Give some examples of incorrect sentences (e.g. The dogs chases
the cat)
o Explain that subject-verb agreement is important because without it
a sentence can be confusing. To communicate clearly in English,
we must follow rules like this one.
