1. Turn in your Writer’s notebook from last time, or it will be a zero

2. Subordinating conjunctions & Complex sentences

4. 2 kinds of sentences Simple sentence: 1 set of subject and verb Mary slept in late for class. Mary slept in late for class and was marked tardy. Both Mary and Liza slept in late for class. Both Mary and Liza slept in late for class and were marked tardy. Compound sentence: 2 sets of subject verb, CC (fanboys) ; Mary and Liza slept in late for class, so the teacher marked them tardy. Mary and Liza slept in late for class; the teacher marked them tardy.

5. Review practice: fix the punctuation Some invented dishes that have lids attached to them. I didn’t say anything, I was too frustrated. My TV is too old to attach any of my gaming systems too, therefore, I had to buy a new one. My favorite dessert is apple pie but I never have enough time to peel the apples make the crust and bake one from scratch. My grandparents own a ranch in Texas my uncle will inherit it someday. Community service is important, that’s why it’s now a graduation requirement at many schools.

7. What’s the glue we use to put sentences together? Comma, coordinating conjunctions Semicolon Period NOT just a comma NOT just a coordinating conjunction These all make compound sentences (we’re gluing two sentences together)

9. But what if we want a different kind of glue that gives different information? We can add another sentence to a sentence that tells us “when” We will go to the store after we eat. We will go to the store before we eat. We will go to the store while we eat. We will go to the store when we eat We will go to the store as soon as we eat The bolded words are called “subordinating conjunctions” They glue together two sentences to form a COMPLEX SENTENCE

10. Subordinating conjunctions: When We could also switch around the word order, and it would mean the same thing After we eat, we will go to the store. Before we eat, we will go to the store. While we eat, we will go to the store. When we eat, we will go to the store As soon as we eat, we will go to the store

11. Subordinating conjunctions: condition We can add another sentence to a sentence that tells us a condition We will go to the store if we eat. (If we eat, we will go to the store) We will go to the store as long as we eat. (As long as we eat, we will go to the store) We will go to the store provided that we eat. (Provided that we eat, we will go to the store) We will go to the store unless we eat. (Unless we eat, we will go to the store) The bolded words are called “subordinating conjunctions” They glue together two sentences to form a COMPLEX SENTENCE

12. Subordinating conjunctions: contrast We can add another sentence to a sentence that shows a contrast We will go to the store even though we ate. (Even though we ate, we will go to the store) We will go to the store although we ate. (Although we ate, we will go to the store) We will go to the store though we ate. (Though we ate, we will go to the store) We will go to the store whereas they will eat. (Whereas they will eat, we will go to the store) The bolded words are called “subordinating conjunctions” They glue together two sentences to form a COMPLEX SENTENCE

13. Subordinating conjunctions: reason We can add another sentence to a sentence that shows a reason We will go to the store because we ate. (Because we ate, we will go to the store) We will go to the store since we ate. (Since we ate, we will go to the store) The bolded words are called “subordinating conjunctions” They glue together two sentences to form a COMPLEX SENTENCE

15. Subordinating conjunctions so far Before After When While As soon as If Unless As long as Provided that Even though Though Although Whereas Because Since

16. Remember We use subordinating conjunctions to combine, “glue together,” two sentences (complete thoughts) They are just another option in addition to FANBOYS They can’t be with a sentence by itself Since we know him well. ……………….we went out together When I went to the store………………….I saw my friend Bob. If you show me your assignment. …………… (then) I’ll show you mine.
