Read each sentence carefully. For each sentence, identify the subject, verb, direct object (if present), and any modifiers. Then, draw a basic sentence diagram in the space provided. Remember to place the subject and verb on the main horizontal line, separated by a vertical line. If there's a direct object, separate it from the verb with a vertical line that does not extend below the main line. Modifiers go on slanted lines beneath the words they modify.
