Sentence Structure Worksheet I am looking for tutors who are able to complete this work, please review the work before placing a bidcomplete the worksheet on the same document I have sent. Five ways to connect sentences
Focusing on these parts of your writing should help you avoid run-on sentences (fused
sentences or comma splices), fragments and other sentence-level issues. Attending to the
connections you establish between sentences – the ideas you try to communicate to your
reader – makes or breaks the writing communication.
1. The period. Easy enough, but if you miss the correct placement of a period, uncertainty
abounds.
2. The semi-colon. This is similar to a period. Writers misuse this frequently. What comes
before and after a semi-colon HAS TO BE an independent clause (complete sentence). A
semi-colon highlights the connection between the two sentences; this punctuation mark
ensures the reader that you are still talking about the same subject.
3. Coordinate Conjunction (FANBOYS). These are those extremely common words: For,
And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So. We use them all the time. They help you avoid run-ons and
establish logic and clarity. For two given clauses, more than one might work, but only
one is most effective.
4. Subordinate Conjunctions. Look these up. You will find a list of these words you use all
the time. They complicate the syntax of your writing, but basically just connect two
independent clauses. Here’s the trick: when you use one of these conjunctions, like
“although,” you make an independent clause a dependent clause. Holy cow! Now you
have to connect that dependent clause to an independent clause.
The punctuation tip: if the subordinate conjunction is at the beginning of the sentence, there
is a comma between the two sentences; if the subordinate clause goes between the two
sentences, you do not need a comma.
Because the meat was left on the counter all night, I am throwing it away.
I am throwing the meat away because it was left on the counter all night.
The word “because” is the conjunction joining those two sentences. Take away that word and
you will see the two independent clauses (complete sentences) you are trying to connect.
5. Conjunctive adverbs. Again, look this up. You will see a general list of words like
“however,” “therefore,” etc. These, again, connect two sentences. Either a semi-colon
or a period goes in front of this word and a comma comes afterwards.
In the examples below, underline each independent clause in each sentence. Also, identify
the subordinate conjunction by drawing a circle around it, and apply any missing commas
required to offset the subordinate clause containing the subordinate conjunction (If that
sounds like a foreign language, welcome to language studies!).
1. Cassandra left the park because it started to rain.
2. While you might enjoy the feel of raindrops falling on your face I do not enjoy standing
in this light drizzle.
3. If you read through the instructions carefully you should have no problem answering the
questions in the correct format.
4. Because there is the slightest chance she will say no Bill decides not to ask Nancy to the
dance.
5. Grandma checked behind the recliner because her grandson, Luke, sometimes liked to
hide a cookie or two behind it.
6. Whenever the silence grows too heavy Laura starts singing one of her favorite songs out
loud.
7. Linda only washes laundry once she has gathered the dirty clothes from all three of her
children’s bedrooms.
8. Even though Lance tends to do well on most tests he was really worried about his
calculus exam.
9. Larry did not intend to stay later unless his employer paid overtime.
10. The check is in the mail provided that the mail went out on time in this horrendous
snow storm.
