1. Do Now: Combine the following simple sentences into complex sentences.
The library lost power on Friday. The library closed for the weekend.
I didn’t eat breakfast this morning. I was running late this morning.
I am not watching Riverdale every week. I am going to binge-watch Riverdale this summer.

2. Refresh: Complex sentences are made up of An independent (main) clause
I am not watching Riverdale every week
And a dependent (subordinate) clause
Because I am going to binge-watch it this summer.

3. Refresh When the independent clause comes first, don’t use a comma:
Ex: The library closed for the weekend after it lost power on Friday.
When the dependent clause comes first, use a comma:
Ex: After the library lost power on Friday, it closed for the weekend.

During this project, you will choose a quote that exemplifies (represents) your chosen character’s physical appearance, words, actions, thoughts (specifically, fears), and interactions with others. Then, after you explain how that quote exemplifies that quality, you will explain how that aspect of your character explains the political, social, and emotional environment of Nazi Germany.
