an example of each one. � One word (e.g. chalkboard)
� Separate words (e.g. school bus) � Hyphenated words (e.g. fire-fly)

Time-order signals � Can be words or phrases
� Important to show order in narrative paragraphs
� Should be followed by a comma (except soon, now, and then)

Purpose � What are the three main purposes for writing? Think
of an example of each. � Inform (e.g. Wikipedia entry)
� Persuade (e.g. Political essay) � Entertain (e.g. Novel)

Simple sentences � Simple sentences are sentences with a single
subject and a single verb: � My grandpa ran to the bus.
� OR they are sentences with a single group of subjects and a single group of verbs: � My grandpa and my grandma ran to the bus and caught it
just in time. � These are called compound subjects and compound verbs.
� What is a sentence fragment?

Compound sentences � Compound sentences have two clauses, each of
which has a subject (group) and a verb (group). � My grandpa ran to the bus, and I stayed with my mom.
� My grandpa and grandma ran to the bus and caught it just in time, and my mom and I stayed on the corner and waited for my dad.

Compound sentences, cont. � My grandpa ran to the bus, and I stayed with my mom.
� How are the clauses in a compound sentence joined? � a comma
� a coordinating conjunction (FANBOYS) � For
� And
� Nor
� But
� Or
� So
� Yet

Coordinating conjunctions � In this chapter, we’re focusing on the four most
common coordinating conjunctions: � And
� But � So � Or
� What is the meaning of each one?
� Write an example compound sentence for each one.

A note about coordinating conjunctions
� Sentences should never begin with coordinating conjunctions: � *I moved to Syracuse last year. But I have lived in the
United States for three years already.
� The second sentence is considered a fragment.
� How can we correct this?

Punctuation � There are three main rules for commas related to
our grammar in this chapter: 1. Use commas after time-order signals at the
beginning of sentences (except soon, then, and now). 2. Use a comma before the coordinating conjunction in
a compound sentence.
3. Put a comma between the items in a series of three or more items.
