3. Adding Conjunctions: Help your students expand their ideas and add depth to their sentences. Showcase words like “and,” “also,” and “in addition.”
4. Comparative Conjunctions: Encourage comparison and contrast in their writing. Highlight words like “as,” “than,” and “like.”
5. Conditional or Concessive Conjunctions: Explore the world of conditions, concessions, and possibilities. Examine words such as “if,” “unless,” and “although.”
6. Example Conjunctions: Teach the importance of illustrating ideas with specific examples. Illustrate with words like “for example” and “for instance.”
