Today, you will be recapping complex sentences. Remember, a complex sentence has a main clause and a subordinate clause that begins with a subordinating conjunction.
Subordinating conjunctions are – if, when, before, after, while, because
If you need to remind yourself about complex sentences, I have included a video from last half term which includes information about complex sentences.
Today I would like you to identify the complex sentences from the sentences below.
I brush my teeth before I go to bed.
The dog barked loudly and jumped over the fence.
If you want to go out to play, you must do your homework first.
I won the race.
Because it is cold, I am wearing my coat.
I was hungry.
Challenge: Take one of the sentences that was not a complex sentence and add a subordinate clause using one of the subordinate conjunctions.
