Diagramming advice

[MarkH]

Hello,

I'm a relatively novice ESL teacher, and I'm now moving on to sentence structure with my student. I'd appreciate your advice on a good source of information regarding how to construct a diagram, the definitions of what goes where etc.

I can vaguely remember box analysis from my school days, but I'm having problems finding any references to it on the web. I'm sure a quick dip into the collective genius of this group will find an answer in no time!

Thanks in advance.

For some reason I can't see any diagrams in the first example, but there is a lot of help in the explanations. The second example I can see in full. I guess I should be able to combine the explanations in the first with the diagrams in the secon!

Many thanks!

You're welcome. I think the first may have changed- I am sure it used to have diagrams.
