1 Tosspon Engl 155 Due today: Outline (turn in at the end of class) Agenda 1.Run-On sentences - Review Sentence/Fragment/Run on 2.Begin writing paper – Using the Outline! 3.Incorporating research 4.Quoting/paraphrasing

2 Quick review: Fragments To be a complete sentence- – Subject – Verb – Express a complete thought Watch for words like “although” and “because”! Because I went to the park. Fragment!

3 Clauses A clause is a group of words with a subject and a verb SubjectVerb Youstink. Sallyis talking. SubjectVerb Ilovegrammar Sallyis talkingloudly wMost clauses have further information after the verb

4 Two Types of Clauses Independent clause (Main clause) – Can stand alone as a sentence – Can be joined to another clause – Fred filled a cardboard tube with gunpowder. Dependent clause (Subordinate clause) – Cannot stand alone as a sentence – Must be joined to an independent clause – Because he wanted to make his own firecrackers. Independent clause (Main clause) – Can stand alone as a sentence – Can be joined to another clause – Fred filled a cardboard tube with gunpowder. Dependent clause (Subordinate clause) – Cannot stand alone as a sentence – Must be joined to an independent clause – Because he wanted to make his own firecrackers. A word that joins clauses is a conjunction

5 Joining Clauses A dependent clause can be joined to an independent clause to make a sentence – Fred filled a cardboard tube with gunpowder because he wanted to make his own firecrackers. Or – Because he wanted to make his own firecrackers, Fred filled a cardboard tube with gunpowder. When the sentence starts with the dependent clause, it must have a comma before the independent clause

6 Run-ons Run-ons are independent clauses that have been combined incorrectly. There are several types: – The AND run-on – The Fused run-on – The comma splice We will be going into detail on each one

7 The and run on (pg 146) two or more relatively long independent clauses with a coordinating conjunction without any punctuation. Goal 1 AND per sentence (some situations warrant 2) (Because this has no punctuation, we have to read it in one breath.) – I met Charlyce in a yoga class at the YWCA and we liked each other immediately and we soon became friends and we often hang out at each other’s houses.

8 The Fused run on two or more independent clauses run together without any punctuation. – The girls made the fire the boys cooked the steaks.

9 The comma splice run-on The comma splice: two or more independent clauses run together with only a comma. – I met Charlyce in a yoga class at the YWCA, we soon became friends. – Sounds right? It is actually two separate independent ideas/clauses. We COULD add a ; (semicolon) to make it correct, or we could separate into two sentences.

10 Review: Run ON Fragment= incomplete 2 or more independent clauses (whole sentences) combined incorrectly. – Too many ANDS (goal 1-2 “and”s per sentence) – Fused Jammed together with no punctuation – Comma Splice Jammed together with just a comma (need comma conjunction!!!) I went to the store and bought a candy bar and who did I see there but Kevin who got me a coke and so we went to the park together. Kevin bought me a coke so we went to the park together. Kevin bought me a coke, we went to the park together
