  2. Subway Sentences The idea is that the first and last bit of the sentence (the bun) makes sense alone e.g. The pyramid reached high in the sky. The bit in the middle (meat) adds more detail.

  3. Examples: Embedded clause Final part of sentence adding detail to noun Noun COMMA COMMA b) Snakes, which scare me, are not always poisonous. Remember, this bit can be taken out and it would still make sense! c) My watch, which has to be wound up, works almost as well as one with a battery. a) Cakes, which taste fantastic, are not so good for your health.

  4. Have a go at finding a sensible middle (Piece of meat!!)... CAT SNAKE TEACHER STUDENT Can you compose a Subway sentence for each of the above words? Notice the commas! The child,______________, continued bravely. The workers,___________, waited for home time. The dog, ___________, ran around the park. The baby, _____________, screamed noisily.

  5. Write a Subway Sentence to accompany each picture.

  6. MAIN CLAUSE SUB CLAUSE Dreaming of gold, he ran like the wind. He ran like the wind dreaming of gold. He ran, dreaming of gold, like the wind.

  7. TASK 2 – USING COMMAS THE COMMA RULES If the sub-clause is first, the comma goes next; If the sub-clause is last, no comma in the text (most of the time!). If the sub-clause is in the middle, comma either side… Otherwise you’re ruled offside!
