Compound Sentence Building

Introducing “Building Strong Sentences”, an engaging and comprehensive tool designed to facilitate an introductory lesson on the skill of combining clauses using conjunctions to create compound sentences. 

The slideshow comprises a title slide, 9 instructional slides, and 5 student interaction slides, offering a well-structured approach to the topic. 

Display on the board and work as a whole class, following the step-by-step prompts for students to follow. No additional tools are required, making it a convenient and accessible resource.

How to Use This Slideshow in Your Classroom

This resource can be utilized in various ways. Choose between guided group activities and whole-class participation. For those seeking extension opportunities, students can be challenged to create two distinct sentences and then demonstrate the skill of combining them using coordinating conjunctions.

We recognise the need for scaffolding, so if you’ve got learners who are finding this concept challenging, try utilising physical sentence strips for them to physically manipulate and arrange clauses, providing a tangible and visual aid to enhance comprehension. 

This resource caters to both advanced learners and those requiring additional support, fostering an inclusive learning environment. Immerse your students in the world of sentence structure and conjunctions with this interactive and adaptable digital tool!
