Objective
Students will write sentences that start with the same phrase but include different coordinating conjunctions. Each conjunction will change how they complete their sentence.
Inspired by a text from Mike Saltz.
Steps
- Students practice with "and" and "yet".
- Next, it's "for", "but", and "so."
- We conclude with "or" and "nor" - which will probably require a slightly different opening phrase.

Teachers love Byrdseed.TV!
"I absolutely LOVE all of the ideas on your site. I am using Byrdseed TV to differentiate activities for my clustered students to work on when the rest of the class is doing something they’ve already mastered." ~ Wendy in Washington
"I just subscribed to Byrdseed.TV and am loving it -- though it is kind of scary addictive in a binge-watching kind of way (that, by the way, is a compliment)." ~ Elizabeth from Florida
"I love Byrdseed.TV. It is a lifesaver" ~ Lori in Washington
