Developing Sentence Complexity: Connecting Events with Subordination

This resource focuses on enhancing children's writing skills by teaching them to construct simple and compound sentences while incorporating subordination for time and reason. Through independent writing, children will learn to extend their sentence structures and use connectives effectively. By transforming short, simple sentences into longer, complex ones, they will enhance their ability to sequence events and develop character depth. Practical examples encourage the use of connectives like "when," "because," and "after" to improve writing fluency and complexity.

  1. Sentence structure and punctuation  • Learning objectives • Write simple and compound sentences and begin to use subordination in relation to time and reason • Steps in learning – Step 3 • During independent writing, children extend the range of sentence structures they use. They begin to use subordination for time and reason to help them sequence or connect events and develop character
