Let’s launch into the exciting world of noun clauses! This week, you’ll start by writing an opinion paragraph, which you’ll compare with a final paragraph at the end of the course. This earlier paragraph purely serves as a point of comparison, so it doesn’t need to be perfect. After writing, you’ll learn to differentiate among noun phrases, noun clauses, and other clauses, and we’ll focus on analyzing the roles of noun clauses within a sentence as a whole. By the end of this week, you’ll understand the noun clause basics, a necessary first step for exploring the many types of noun clauses we’ll learn in Week 2. Let’s get started!
