Students learn to identify non-essential information within a sentence (appositives and parenthetical expressions). They practice enclosing these 'interrupters' with commas on both sides.
The final review lesson where students apply all previous strategies (adjectives, situational details, and logical conjunctions) to create complex and polished sentences.
The final lesson focuses on using 'Because, But, So' to expand sentences logically and demonstrate deeper reasoning and detail.
In this lesson, students learn to add situational details to their sentences using 'Where', 'When', and 'How' question words.
This lesson introduces the concept of a complete sentence versus a fragment and begins basic sentence expansion using 'Who' and 'What' details.
A follow-up lesson focusing on complex sentence structures, including comma placement in compound sentences and starting sentences with subordinating conjunctions. Introduces advanced conjunctions like 'although', 'while', and 'unless'.
