Brittany's presentation discussed sentence fragments, which are incomplete sentences lacking either a subject or a predicate. She explained that a complete sentence requires a subject, a verb, and a complete thought. Brittany provided examples of fragments and how to identify them, as well as examples of how to correct fragments by adding the missing subject or predicate to form a complete sentence.
