Conjunction Junction

Coordinating Conjunctions
And, but, for, nor, or, so, and yet—these are the seven coordinating conjunctions. To remember all seven, remember: FANBOYS Example: The fall leaves were bright and beautiful See, it combines “The fall leaves were bright” and “the fall leaves were beautiful” into one
4
Coordinating Conjunctions
Use a coordinating conjunction when you want to give equal emphasis to two main clauses. The pattern for coordination looks like this: Main Clause + Coordinating Conjunction + Main Clause The kid went on a drive. It was fun.

Coordinating Conjunctions
Example: The fall leaves were bright and beautiful See, it combines “The fall leaves were bright” and “the fall leaves were beautiful” into one
6
Subordinate Conjunctions
Some sentences are complex. Such sentences have two clauses, one main [or independent] and one subordinate [or dependent]. After I ate the cookie, I burped. I ate the cookie, so I burped.
7
Subordinate COnjunctions
The subordinate conjunction has two jobs. First, it provides a necessary transition between the two ideas in the sentence. This transition will indicate a time, place, or cause and effect relationship. Example: My dog begins eating her dinner after I begin eating mine. My dog eats dinner > I eat dinner
8
Dependent Clauses After he stole the loaf of bread
Remember, a clause must include a subject and a verb Pick three and write sentences with them: But it begins with a subordinate conjunction (after, although, as, because, before, even though, if, since, though, unless, until, when, whenever, whereas, wherever, while) which means it cannot stand on its own
9
Subordinate Conjunctions
The second job of the subordinate conjunction is to reduce the importance of one clause so that a reader understands which of the two ideas is more important. The more important idea belongs in the main clause, the less important in the clause introduced by the subordinate conjunction. Example: As Samson blew out the birthday candles atop the cake, he burned the tip of his nose on a stubborn flame. Burning his nose > Blowing out the candles

Do Now: Look over Your daily Edit
Make corrections to your original answers based on your notes Then on the back of your edit, come up with a rule designed to tell you when a conjunction is coordinating or subordinate. Check your answers with another person at your table group to ensure you’re right
11
Check Your Work: Coordinating: Daisy, my pug, loves having her head scratched but hates getting her claws trimmed. Coordinating: I hate to waste a single scoop of home-made ice cream, for it is tedious and time-consuming to make. Subordinate: We looked on top of the refrigerator, where Jenny will often hide a bag of chocolate chip cookies. Subordinate: Marco begins to sneeze violently whenever he opens the door to greet a fresh spring day. Coordinating: The bowl of squid eyeball stew is hot and delicious.
