1. Sentence Structure

2. Simple Sentence
A simple sentence is made up of one independent clause. It has ONE subject and ONE predicate (verb).
An Example:
Nick and Zach are lots of fun to have in class.

3. Compound Sentence
A compound sentence has two independent clauses combined together either by a semi-colon (;) or by a FANBOYS preceded by a comma.
For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So
Examples:
Kayla is a wonderful student, and she is a great friend.

4. Complex Sentence
A complex sentence will have one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses.
The dependent portion of a complex sentence begins with a subordinating conjunction.
Subordinating Conjunctions: After, although, as, as if, as long as, as though, because, before, if, in order that, provided, since, so that, than, though, till, unless, until, whatever, when, whenever, where, wherever, while
Example:
Rachel ate cold pizza for breakfast because she wanted to clean the refrigerator.

5. Compound-Complex Sentence
The compound-complex sentence is a combination of the compound and complex sentence. It will therefore have both the punctuation needed in a compound sentence (, fanboys/;) and the subordinating conjunction necessary for the dependent clauses) in the complex sentence.
Example:
Brian knew that he would have to wait, but he didn’t mind.

6. Conjunctions!
