A fragment is a piece of a sentence that cannot stand on its own but incorrectly ends in a period.

For example, “Because of the snowstorm, we stayed home from school” is a complete sentence. “Because of the snowstorm. We stayed home from school” is not grammatical because “because of the snowstorm” can’t stand as a complete sentence.

Hello! To correct a fragment, you need to ensure that a subject and predicate (verb) are present.

Example-

Fragment: Although the dog
The fragment is missing a verb.
Sentence: Although the dog was large, it loved to cuddle.

Hope this helps! :)
