First, let's start with a basic definition:
Conjunctions are words that join words or groups of words.
There are two main types:
coordinating conjunctions
subordinating conjunctions

Coordinating conjunctions include:
• For• And• Nor• But• Or• Yet• So
These conjunctions connect words, phrases, and clauses of equal value.

Let’s practice . . .Write 3 sentences with a partner which
include coordinating conjunctions.
CHECK YOURSELF: Do they connect words, phrases, and clauses of equal value?

Independent Clauses:
Clauses of equal value are called independent clauses and can stand on their own as separate sentences.
Example:John is running in this race and I am carrying his water
bottle.
Each clause can stand alone:John is running in this race.I am carrying his water bottle.
Double check your sentences - conjunctions connect words, phrases, and clauses of equal value.

Subordinating conjunctions:
Subordinating conjunctions introduce dependent clauses.
Dependent clauses cannot stand alone as a single sentence.
In fact, the clause is dependent on the rest of the sentence for its meaning.

Dependent Clauses:
Dependent Clauses cannot stand alone as a single sentence.
The clause is dependent on the rest of the sentence for its meaning.
Example:Since I will not be home, Tina will answer the phone.
"Since I will not be home" doesn't make sense by itself.It is dependent on the rest of the sentence for its meaning.
