TYPES OF SENTENCES KNOW THEM, USE THEM, LEARN TO LOVE THEM.

DECLARATIVE makes a statement about a person, place, thing or idea ends in a period most common Your turn: Write a Declarative sentence.

INTERROGATIVE gets the readers attention asks a question ends in a question mark Your turn: Write an interrogative sentence

IMPERATIVE gives a command or makes a strong request ends in a period appears in dialogue (conversation) or directions Your turn: Write an imperative sentence.

EXCLAMATORY shows strong emotion or feeling Ends in an exclamation mark Used for emphasis Your Turn: Write an exclamatory sentence

SIMPLE SENTENCE AKA: INDEPENDENT CLAUSE Subject + Verb (in that order) Ex: I went to the movies. YOUR TURN: Write a simple sentence.

COMPOUND SENTENCE Two simple sentences (independent clauses) together These sentences MUST be cousins (related) Subject + Verb, coordinating conjunction Subject + Verb EX: I chose the movie, and Dad drove us there. The movie starts off slowly, but it gets really exciting.

COORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS Words that join two simple sentences (independent clauses) together. Use F. A. N. B. O. Y. S. to remember the 7 Coordinating Conjunctions F = for A = and N = nor B = but O = or Y = yet S = so

CHANGE THESE SIMPLE SENTENCES IN TO COMPOUND SENTENCES 1. I could go to Sara’s house. I could stay home. I could go to Sara’s house, or I could stay home. 2. I played great this season. I got a trophy! I played great this season, so I got a trophy! 3. She painted a beautiful portrait. She didn’t feel it was her best work. She painted a beautiful portrait, yet she didn’t feel it was her best work.

COMPLEX SENTENCE Two related ideas combined together with subordinating conjunctions. Dependent clause + independent clause OR Independent clause + dependent clause EX: Although we were out of milk, I did not go to the store. Before she went to bed, she had to brush her teeth.

SUBORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS After Until Before Because Although When

SUBORDINATING CONJUNCTION The subordinating conjunction may come at the beginning of the sentence. Example Although she loved ice cream, she wasn’t in the mood to eat any. Notice that when the first idea in the sentence begins with a subordinating conjunction, a comma follows that idea.

SUBORDINATING CONJUNCTION If the first word does not begin with a subordinating conjunction, a comma is not needed. EXAMPLE You cannot go to your locker until the bell rings.

SEE IF YOU CAN RECOGNIZE THE SUBORDINATING CONJUNCTION IN EACH OF THESE COMPLEX SENTENCES. I didn’t get to go swimming because it was storming outside. Books get thrown away after they have been used for a long period of time.

LET’S RE-CAP Compound Sentences use coordinating conjunctions to connect two thoughts. Complex sentences use subordinating conjunctions to connect two thoughts.
