Identify the main clause elements

Using the Sentence Structure knowledge point
The main independent clause is "dad gave us our lunches."

• Simple subject: "dad"
• Simple predicate: "gave"

Analyze objects of the verb

Using the Indirect Object knowledge point
The verb "gave" is a transitive verb that takes both a direct and an indirect object:

• Direct object (what was given): "lunches"
• Indirect object (to whom it was given): "us"

Evaluate the given options

• Option 1: Incorrectly identifies the subject as "school" and predicate as "left."
• Option 2: Incorrectly identifies the subject as "morning" and predicate as "left."
• Option 3: Incorrectly identifies the subject as "frenzy" and predicate as "gave us."
• Option 4: Correctly identifies the subject "dad," predicate "gave," direct object "lunches," and indirect object "us."
