What is the function of the noun phrase "the assembled children" in this sentence? the meteorologist told the assembled children
kaheart [24]

indirect object

An indirect object is the receiver of the direct object. The assembled children are the ones who are receiving the information the meteorologist is telling. The subject of the sentence is who or what the sentence is about. The meteorologist is the subject of this sentence. He is doing the action. A predicate nominative renames the subject. It follows a linking verb. There is no linking verb in the sentence so predicate nominative is not an option. An appositive is a noun phrase that renames or describes the noun next to it. For example Sarah, my sister, is late. My sister is an appositive; it renames Sarah as my sister.

Is online School better than Public School, 4-6 sentences please<br><br> 20 points!
Anarel [89]
It depends on the student. Some students learn better at public school because they are face-to-face with a teacher. On the other hand some students learn better in online school because they don't have a bunch of students around them being distractions. So basically the bottom line is that neither of them are particularly better than the other. It is was works best for each individual student.

I hope this helps. I have had experiences with both types of schooling so I can say that this is as accurate as can be.
