EXTRA CREDIT

Parents we checked our homework today and we did not to well. So, here is some extra credit that can help your son/daughter with conjunctions and compound sentences.



Here is a worksheet that will help you go over the rules.

http://www.flushinghighschool.org/ourpages/auto/2009/10/30/62413390/compound_complex%20sentences.pdf

The students must read the PowerPoint and respond to the questions on the PowerPoint first. Your son/ daughter must do the questions on a separate sheet of paper. This will be worth ten points.
