2 Today you will need a piece of paper, writing utensil, the 2 essay from yesterday, and a rubric. February 2, 2016

3 5 minutes on… Imagine that you had no technology: no TV, computer, phone, or video games for one week. Think of some activities that you can do instead to keep you busy and out of trouble. Write an essay to explain what you can do to keep occupied.

4 Objectives for today We will discuss the rubric and changes we made to the 2 essay. We will look at an example corrected essay. We will learn about compound-complex sentences.

5 Soooooo…. What did we change to make the essay a 3? Introduction? First body? Second body? Conclusion?

6 Example “True friends are like mornings, you can’t have them the whole day, but you can be sure they will be there when you wake up tomorrow, next year and forever(Karuna Sapra). In life, friends are crucial. Friends are a shoulder to cry on, someone you can trust, and always supports you. A true companion will be there when you need them.

7 Example In addition, friends are the roses to your garden, the salt to your pepper, and the peas to your pod. In the book Legend, a poor boy, admirable and reserved, and a rich girl, a snobby brat, work together to change the country, one town at a time. Along the way they became best friends. Who would've ever thought that a rich girl and a poor boy could become such inseparable friends?

8 Example On another note, friends can change your life. You could be having the worst day of your life and then see your best friend walking towards you and cheer up immediately. “A friend is someone who can see the truth and pain in you even when you are fooling everyone else.”(Anonymous). They can tell when you're sad or mad without even asking.

9 Example Friends are extremely important. Anyone can be friends, no matter what shape, size, race, or wealth. They are the ones that know you best. “Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.”(Anonymous).

10 Cookie Grammar A Delectable Language Lesson Notice the splendid adjective and the use of alliteration for fun?

11 What’s an independent clause? A complete simple sentence ONE whole cookie

12 Put the subject and the predicate together and they make an independent clause or a simple sentence. Subject+ Predicate = Complete Simple Sentence/ Independent Clause Subject + Predicate = A match made in heaven

13 Sentences are made of CLAUSES and PHRASES Clauses are ingredients in your sentences that can change your cookie recipe. Different types of clauses and the amount of clauses can alter the type of cookie you are dealing with. Clauses have a subject and a predicate. There are two types of clauses: Independent Clause Dependent Clause Phrases just add some extra flavors to your cookies. Phrases will be missing either a subject or a predicate. There are several types of phrases. Think about your Brush Strokes (these are phrases)

14 Clauses: TWO Types Independent clauses have a subject and a predicate that represent a complete thought. can be independent. don’t need other words or clauses to make them complete. Dependent clauses have a subject and a predicate as well, but they also have another word or group of words called a subordinating conjunction, which turn the sentence into a dependent clause, needing completeness.

15 Phrases Phrases DO NOT change the type of sentence you are dealing with. Phrases will be lacking either a subject or a predicate. Your Brush Strokes are PHRASES! Appositive phrases Absolute phrases Adjectives out of order Prepositional phrases Participial phrases Don’t let these delicious morsels and sprinkles change the type of cookie you are making. They make your sentences more delicious, but they do not change your cookie.

16 So, what happens when we add exciting and grandiloquent verbs, adjectives, and phrases (Brush Strokes) to our sugar cookies?

17 We get a scrumptious iced cookie with those crunchy sprinkles on top! Yummmm…

18 Or we get the even better- beloved chocolate chip cookie. Phrases (Brush Strokes), adjectives, and vivid verbs make our cookies taste better!

19 They’re all the same... -Independent Clause -Simple Sentence -One Cookie No matter how much icing, sprinkles, or chocolate chips you add to your sugar cookie, you still only have _____ cookie!

20 So, What About All That Loose Fudge You Were Playing With? Glad you asked. We can’t just leave that stuff laying around. It can get pretty messy.

21 So, as you may have guessed… The fudge-striped cookie is just like a complex sentence. Sugar Cookie + Loose Fudge = Fudge-Striped Cookie Independent Clause + Dependent Clause = Complex Sentence Thus, = complex sentence

22 This delectable complex sentence is easy to find when all the cookies are mixed in the same jar. Complex sentences have subordinating conjunctions as the main ingredient in their special loose fudge. Subordinating conjunctions (many are prepositions) are used to join independent clauses to make complex sentences. A preposition that is not part of the main clause will create loose fudge. Look for these tasty morsels at the start of what would be an independent clause without it: after, although, as, as if, because, before, even if, even though, if, if only, rather than, since, that, though, unless, until, when, where, whereas, wherever, whether, which, and while Let’s look at the difference a subordinating conjunction makes: I eat cookies. After I eat cookies. After I eat cookies, I can sleep soundly. I can sleep soundly after I eat cookies.

23 Still Not Convinced One (and only one) independent cookie. Delicious dependent layer because of that subordinating conjunction (If you took all the chocolate off of one cookie, it wouldn't be enough for a snack.

24 TWO (2) Cookies!

25 If you know me, you knew where this was going…. I love Oreo Cookies (or any sandwich cookie) These are your compound sentences.

26 There are THREE different ways to make a Compound Sentence 1.Creamy Center made of a Comma and Coordinating Conjunction (aka FANBOYS) 2. Creamy Center made of a semi-colon, conjunctive adverb, and a comma 3. Creamy Center made of just a semi-colon It’s all about that Creamy Center…

27 1. Creamy Center made of a Comma and a Coordinating Conjunction Independent Clause Comma and Coordinating Conjunction (AKA- FANBOYS),for,and,nor,but,or,yet,so Oreo cookies are delicious with milk, but some ill-minded people might disagree with me. Remember: You must have a complete sentence (whole cookie) on both sides of the creamy center; otherwise, you don’t need a comma.

28 Really? Yep! independent clause Comma and a coordinating conjunction joining the two

29 2. Creamy Center made of a Conjunctive Adverb Independent Clause Oreo cookies are delicious with milk; however, some ill-minded people might disagree with me. Remember: You must have a complete sentence (whole cookie) on both sides of the creamy center. also however otherwise consequently indeed similarly finally likewise then furthermore moreover therefore hence nevertheless thus nonetheless

30 3. Creamy Center made of just a Semi-colon Independent Clause Semi-colon ; Oreo cookies are delicious with milk; they are also delicious with ice-cream. A vote for Oreos is a vote for happiness; voting otherwise will end in doom. Remember: You must have a complete sentence (whole cookie) on both sides of the creamy center Tip: I would say that it would be good practice to only use the simple semi-colon to join two independent clauses when using a pronoun that directly relates to it’s antecedent in the clause before it or when you are presenting a juxtaposition (two opposing ideas).

31 Okay, I Will Repeat independent clause Comma and a coordinating conjunction joining the two; a semi- colon, conjunctive adverb, and comma joining the two; or, just a semi-colon joining the two

32 Cookie Wants More Cookies There’s only one sentence type left.

33 It’s two times the chocolate fun; It’s creamy; It’s fudgalicious…

34 That’s Right ! It’s the Compound/Complex Sentence! Notice the cookies could stand alone as a delicious treat? It has that same creamy filling that holds it together: comma and a conjunction; a semi-colon, conjunctive adverb, and comma; or just a semi-colon But the loose fudge would still not make a cookie alone.

35 Baking a Compound-Complex Sentence It’s the compound sentence plus a dependent clause. Independent Clause [Comma and a coordinating conjunction joining the two; a semi-colon, conjunctive adverb, and a comma joining the two; (no comma); or, just a semi-colon joining the two] Independent Clause + Dependent Clause Compound/Complex Sentence As she watches Sesame Street, Mrs. Rose likes to dunk her Oreos in milk, but she never lets Cookie Monster find out. Mrs. Rose likes to dunk her Oreos in milk as she watches Sesame Street, but she never lets Cookie Monster find out. Remember: You must still have a complete sentence (whole cookie) on both sides of the creamy center.

36 Let’s Review

37 Simple Sentence one clause one cookie simple sentence Chocolate chips, or oatmeal, or raisins are like extra details MIXED into the independent clause.

38 Complex Sentence one independent clause add a dependent clause and another dependent clause (if you want) It doesn’t matter how many DEPENDENT clauses you add.

39 Compound Sentence one independent clause another independent clause and more independent clauses (if you want) joined together by a comma and a coordinating conjunction; a semi- colon, conjunctive adverb, and a comma; or just a semi-colon

40 Compound/Complex two or more independent clauses one or more dependent clauses joined together by a comma and a coordinating conjunction; a semi-colon, conjunctive adverb, and a comma; or just a semi-colon

41 Remember... Punctuation of your sentence depends where the clauses join.
