Remember that a sentence is a group of words that makes a complete thought. It must contain both a subject and a predicate! A sentence with one subject/predicate pattern is called a simple sentence. A sentence with two subject/predicate patterns is called a compound sentence.

Simple sentences The moose, the bug and the spider talked and ate as they traveled through the woods. This sentence has one subject predicate pattern and is a simple sentence. Take another look:

subject The moose, the bug and the spider predicate talked and ate as they traveled through the woods One complete, compound subject and one complete compound predicate. It still has the subject / predicate pattern. Still a SIMPLE SENTENCE

Compound sentence Let’s look at a different pattern: The bug slept, and the spider talked. This is called a compound sentence because it has two subject / predicate patterns connected with a conjunction. Look again:

Compound sentence The bug slept. and The spider talked. The bug slept, and the spider talked. Notice that a comma must be used in front of the conjunction to connect the two sentences.
