Hey Class,
Today we talked about sentence combining. You were given a handout that explains it in class today. If you were absent, make sure you get it tomorrow. Basically, there are two rules to remember when you combine smaller sentences into a longer one.
1) Make sure the combined sentence has the same meaning as the smaller sentences.
2) Make sure that the sentence flows smoothly, without a lot of repeated phrases.
Homework: Complete the two worksheets. We corrected most of the first one in class. The second one deals with sentences from Harry Potter and we'll correct it in class tomorrow.
