Strictly speaking only co-ordinating conjunctions are used to create compound sentences. There are only 7 co-ordinating conjunctions: for and nor but or yet so (FANBOYS). The subordinating conjunction because (and its alternative as and since) is included here as it is commonly used as an example conjunction from Entry 2 upwards.

2. Warm Up Get into pairs and draw up a list of punctuation rules. Include rules for: Capital letters Full stops Commas Question marks Exclamation marks Any other punctuation you think is important

3. Learning Outcomes Today you will: Write in complete sentences Punctuate correctly, so meaning is clear Use a capital letter for proper nouns Spell correctly a range of common words Check your spelling of last week’s words

4. Conjunctions Conjunctions are joining words. Examples include: asorsoandbutsince because Use a conjunction to join two simple sentences. Example: He wants his hair coloured. He’s allergic to some of the dyes. He wants a colour but he’s allergic to some of the dyes. Two sentences joined together like this become a compound sentence.
