Pg.

17L

Negative words: no, not, nobody, nothing, none, never, hardly, scarcely, barely, only. Using two negatives in the same sentence gives the opposite meaning, but it does the job awkwardly. Avoid double negatives!

Write the sentences with the correct word in parentheses.

1. She couldn’t eat (anything, nothing) at dinner tonight.2. I didn’t see (nothing, anything) in the room.3. We (could, couldn’t) hardly see through the fog.4. She did not have (anything, nothing) to read in class.5. I could not see (no, any) way to help the alien.6. I cannot find my money (anywhere, nowhere).7. You (can, cannot) scarcely recognize her.8. The children do not need (no, any) candy.

Sentence Structure

Before We Begin…

• Does anyone know what a subject is? – A noun that is the topic of the sentence– Example: Susie ate ice cream today.

• Susie is a noun. Susie is the subject

• Does anyone know what a verb is? – A verb is an action word. – Example: Susie ate ice cream today.

• ate is the verb in the sentence

• NOTE: Subordinate means the same as Dependent in this lesson.

CLAUSESIndependent Clauses

Dependent Clauses

An independent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb and expresses a complete thought. An independent clause is a sentence all on it’s own.

Example 1: The dog barks.

subject verb+ =Independent

ClauseExample 2: Although I had tickets, I did not go to the show.

verb subject+ =Independent

Clause

A dependent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb but DOES NOT express a complete thought. A dependent clause cannot be a sentence.

Non Example: When Jim studied at Starbucks for his English quiz .

subject verb

But wait…there’s not a complete thought.

What happened when he studied?

Example: When Jim studied at Starbucks for his English quiz, it was very noisy .

The phrase “it was very noisy” completes the thought about Jim at Starbucks.

TO SUMMARIZE (ON YOUR HANDOUT)

An Independent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb and express a complete thought. It’s a sentence all on its own.

Example:

A subordinate (dependent) clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb and does not express a complete thought. A subordinate (dependent) clause can not be a sentence on its own.

Example:

TYPES OF SENTENCES

Simple Sentences

Independent clause = I love ice cream.

Complex Sentences

Independent clause + Dependent clause = Complex Sentence

Ex: When it’s hot out, I love ice cream.

Compound Sentences

Independent clause + Independent clause = Compound Sentence

Ex: I love ice cream, and I adore chocolate cake.

SENTENCE TYPES PRACTICESimple Sentence:

You could go swimming.We could take a walk.

Compound Sentence: You could go swimming , or we could take a walk.

Complex Sentence: You will enjoy swimming and walking if you are interested in exercise.

HOW DO YOU COMBINE SENTENCES?

Compound sentences and complex sentences are very unique because of the way the sentences are combined!In order to combine sentences (clauses) you need conjunctions!The two types of conjunctions are:

1. Coordinating conjunctions2. Subordinating conjunctions

Compound sentence

• Compound sentences always combine two simple sentences with a comma + FANBOYS– For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So

• THESE ARE CALLED COORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS!!!!

Coordinating conjunctions connect 2 independent clauses. There are 7 coordinating conjunctions that link sentences. To remember them, we use the word FANBOYS.

.

5

FANBOYS (NOTICE THE COMMAS BEFORE THE CONJUNCTION!)

1. For shows reason.

2. And shows addition.

3. Nor adds a negative.

4. But shows opposition.

5. Or shows an alternative.

6. Yet shows exception.

7. So shows a result.

1. I like to read mystery novels, for I love suspense

2. She goes to the beach, and she takes her dog.

3. I don’t like garlic, nor do I like onions4. He won’t get into the concert, but

he can try.5. I will take my kids to a movie, or I

will stay home.6. I want to lose weight, yet I eat

chocolate daily.7. I will study the fanboys, so I can

impress my teacher.

6

Find the Coordinating Conjunction

• Can you help me find the coordinating conjunction in the following sentences?– 1.) I wanted to go to the theme park, but I had to write my

paper first. – 2.) You can make some salad, or you can order some pizza.– 3.) Lisa wanted to go to her friend’s house, so she helped her

mom with all the chores. – 4.) John waited for the train, but the train was late.

– Can you now help me underline each of the independent clauses??

Complex Sentences

• Complex sentences are combined with SUBORDINATE CONJUNCTIONS.

• Subordinating Conjunctions connect dependent clauses with independent clauses.

7

Subordinate conjunctions

• You can remember them as: BISAWAWE– Because – If– Since– After– When– Although– While– Even though

Examples:

• If I go to the store• After we ate at the restaurant• While I was studying

Aesop and his Fables

Written by Lin DonnIllustrated by Phillip Martin

Aesop was an ancient Greek storyteller who lived around 550 BCE. He was also a slave. He lived in ancient Rome, in the home of a wealthy Roman family.

Legend says … Aesop’s Roman master was so delighted with Aesop’s fables that he granted Aesop his freedom!

Aesop’s Fables

There are no records to prove that Aesop ever wrote anything down. Fortunately, after his death, people did write down every fable they could remember.

Over the centuries, Aesop's fables have been rewritten and illustrated and translated into nearly every language in the world.

Aesop’s Fables

Today, we still enjoy these wonderful stories created over 2,500 years ago! 

Each is a very short story, and each has a moral.

Like this one …

Aesop’s Fables

One day, a fox fell down a well. He tried to climb out, but the well was too deep.

A goat wandered by. He peered down curiously. “What are you doing in a well?” asked the goat.

The Fox and the Goat

“I’m warning you, goat,” snarled the fox. “This is my water! Go away.”

“You can’t keep all the water for yourself,” the goat snorted. The goat jumped in the well.

The Fox and the Goat

The fox jumped on the goat’s back and leaped out of the well. He ran off without a care for the goat who was stuck in the well.

The Moral of This Story is: Don’t always believe what you hear from someone in trouble.

The Fox and the Goat
