red flag if the sentence is incorrect, and I will call a student to have it corrected. Is it clear?
Yes.

4.3 Analysis
(15 minutes) To expand your understanding, let's talk about the fundamental subject-verb
agreement rules when creating grammatically sound sentences.
One of the basic rule is that: A singular subject takes a singular verb, whereas
a plural subject takes a plural verb.
If the subject consists of multiple singular nouns joined by or, treat the subject
as singular.
However, if the subject consists of multiple plural nouns joined by or, treat the subject
as plural.
The verb in an or, either/or, or neither/nor sentence agrees with the noun or
pronoun closest to it.
Examples: Either the plates nor the serving bowl goes on that shelf.
Neither the serving bowl nor the plates go on that shelf.
use a plural verb with two or more subjects when they are connected by and.
In those sentences, breaking and entering and bed and breakfast are compound
nouns.
In sentences beginning with here or there, the true subject follows the verb.
Use a singular verb with distances, periods of time, sums of money, etc.,
when considered as a unit.
Shouldn't Joe be followed by was, not were, given that Joe is singular? But Joe isn't
actually here, so we say were, not was. The sentence demonstrates the subjunctive
mood, which is used to express a hypothetical, wishful, imaginary, or factually
contradictory thought. The subjunctive mood pairs singular subjects with what we
usually think of as plural verbs.

4.5 Application
(15 minutes)
I'm going to split the class into two groups right now to have a conversational dialogue.
Each group will be given a situation, and you'll have them write a little script about it. You
have three minutes to get ready for your scripts. The presentation cannot last longer than
three minutes. Be careful how you phrase your sentences and how you combine the verb
with the subject. Is it obvious?
Group 1: You will talk about your plan for a beautiful sunny day.
Group 2: You will talk about your plan about the pageant on your school fair.
