My answers have been helpful but I am stuck – don’t get me down – just ask! How can I? I have to teach a class on this in two days and I suspect that the text provided for me is wrong:

Walking to school, I saw a car driving erratically toward me.

I would say that “Walking to school” is a participle phrase as it has no subject, but my text says that it is a participle clause. Does that just mean to make the poem about walking to school? How does a verb be a clause when there is no subject at the end of each sentence? I lve read of implied subjects t.e. ch. d.jcb. i.e. i.e. f a.ssr. a.sv.p.r.s.i., as well as my experiences from reading of implied subjects. This post was something you meant to describe – i.e. i.e. When a person walks a person spotting the other person is the same. So they spotting and walking are a similar thing. What does it matter when people have good news?

I know heaps and I want to give my little guys accurate info, which is truly hard when it comes to clauses!
