Glossary: single-clause sentence
Explanation
The term preferred in the National Curriculum for a sentence consisting of a single clause. Also called simple sentence. For example, in He went to school on the bus, there is only one main verb (went) and therefore one clause. By contrast, a multi-clause sentence contains more than one clause.Englicious contains many resources for English language in schools, but the vast majority of them require you to register and log in first.
