Writing
CCSS ELA Standard: 3.L.1.h
Use coordinating and subordinating conjunctions.
Writing Compound Sentences
Students work with subjects, predicates, and conjunctions to write compound sentences.
Changing Coordinating Conjunctions
What happens when we switch out a “but” with a “so”? An “and” with a “for”? How can such tiny words make such big differences?
Writing Technique: 3 Dependent Clauses
A specific technique to help students add some spice to their writing. We’ll be writing sentences with three dependent clauses.
Ways to Start a Sentence – Level 2
We’ll show students how to add more variety to their writing by starting sentences with a reason, a prepositional phrase, and a simile.
