  1. Sentence Type Variety

  2. Warm-up I want you to write 2 examples for each of the following sentence types using vocabulary words from the current Unit. -Simple Sentence -Compound Sentence -Complex Sentence -Compound-Complex Sentence

  3. Now a little backtracking • Phrase- a group of words that add extra information to a sentence • Clause – a group of words that contains a subject and a verb • Independent clauses express a complete thought. They can stand alone as sentences. • Dependent clauses contain a subject and a verb, but they do not express a complete thought. They cannot stand alone.

  4. Now…. Go back to your warm-up and highlight your Ind. clauses in one color and any dependent clauses in another color. In each Ind. Clause underline the verb and star the subject.

  5. Simple Sentences Have one independent clause For example: The cat ran under the porch.

  6. Compound Sentences Has two+ independent clauses joined by conjunction(s) or a semicolon (used alone or with a transition). For example: My break was not long enough; I am ready for another one already.

  7. Complex Sentences Has 1 independent clause and 1 or more dependent clause(s) For example: While I was on vacation, I ate a lot of stuffing and turkey.

  8. Compound-Complex Sentences Has 2 independent clauses joined by a conjunction and 1 or more dependent clause(s). For example: My favorite book is Pride and Prejudice, which Jane Austen wrote, and I enjoyed the movie version of it as well.

  9. What happens when we don’t write sentences correctly? FUSED SENTENCES AND FRAGMENTS

  10. Fused Sentences Fused sentences are just run on sentences. For example: My break was not long enough I am ready for another one already.

  11. Fragment A fragment is an incomplete sentence For example: Such as apple pie, bread pudding, and ice cream. Or As you may know.
