Writing Lab--print Crucible Paper
Sentence Walkaway--Students will be able to evaluate and revise for sentence rhythm created through sentence construction.
1. Combine sentences: combine these 7 sentences into 1 sentence.
2. Decombine sentences: take apart this sentence and see how many short sentences you can make.
3. Grammar Girl--"Complex-Compound Sentences." Fill in the blanks.
4. Create complex and compound sentences--put these words strips in two piles (one for independent clauses and one for dependent clauses). Then try making up sentences by combining them. If you were absent, invent your own 5 sentences.
