Vignette 7.4. Unpacking Sentences and Nominalization
in Complex History Texts
Designated ELD Instruction in Grade Eleven (cont.)
Mr. Martinez: Right, if I say it like a thing, “the destruction of the car,” we can’t tell who
did it—me! That one was pretty easy. If you write “The removal of the
Native Americans . . . ,” that also hides the agent. Why would the historian
want to hide agency here? Talk for a minute with the person sitting next to
you first.
Selena: If you hide the agent, the people who do it, we think it just happen. But we
don’t know who do it. Or we have to think hard to see who did it.
Katia: And I think it show that the Native Americans do not make the decisions
Elois: themselves. Someone forced them to leave their land. But if you don’t say
who force them, then it makes it softer or seem not so bad.
We don’t know who planning to remove the Cherokee, and we don’t know
who removing them.
Mr. Martinez: Right, and how do we know someone is removing them?
Nadia: It say, “their removal.” But they are not removing themself.
Mr. Martinez: Good observation. Notice this word: removal. It’s related to the verb
remove, right? But is it a verb here?
Amir: That’s passive voice.
Mr. Martinez: That’s a great connection you’re making. This is like passive voice, but it’s
a little different. The thing that’s the same is that you don’t know who the
agent is when you use passive voice or nominalization. But what’s different
is that passive voice is still in the verb form. So, you might say something
like “The Cherokees were removed.” However, nominalization turns the verb
into a noun or a “thing.” Instead of seeing were removed, you’d see “their
removal.”
Mr. Martinez writes the following examples of what he explained on the board:
Active Voice Passive Voice Nominalization
Their removal . . .
The U.S. government The Cherokees were
removed the Cherokees. removed. noun form – cannot see
verb form – can see agent verb form – cannot see agent
agent
He then asks students to find other nominalizations in the text. They read the sentences
together, and at the end of each one, he asks them to identify any nominalizations. The class
decides together if the words are nominalizations; the students highlight them and then discuss
what questions they should be asking themselves when they read. Finally, Mr. Martinez asks
students to translate the part of the sentence that contains the nominalization into a sentence
using the more typical verb form of the word. A portion of the chart that the class generates
follows.
