Sentence Types
Sentences can be
classified 3 ways.
(Phrases do not change
the type of sentence.)
The type of sentence is
determined by 2 factors:
1.How many clauses?
2.What type of clauses?
Every clause needs
2 things:
1. Subject
2. Verb
Remember
Independent clauses always
stand by themselves.
Subordinate clauses never
stand by themselves.

Compound
• Require Coordinating
Conjunctions
–A part of speech that connects
equal things (subject with subject,
independent clause with
independent clause, etc.).
There are 2 ways to
combine sentences
with coordinating
conjunctions.

verb, D.O., etc.
ExamplesIStephen

Combining- 2
• Create a compound sentence.
ExamplesTurkey tastes delicious. People like
to eat turkey on Thanksgiving.
→Turkey tastes delicious, and
people like to eat it on
Thanksgiving.
Practice
DIRECTIONS Turn the following
simple sentences into compound
sentences by using coordinating
conjunctions. Prove that each of
your sentences is now compound by
identifying the independent clauses.
Complex
• Require Subordinate Clauses
–Refer to your list of words that
commonly signal subordinate
clauses.
Combining
• Use a subordinate clause.
ExamplesThe window is broken. The window
broke last year. Austin threw a ball
at the window. The window needs
to be repaired.
→The window, which Austin broke
last year when he threw a ball at
it, needs to be repaired.
