Due today: Outline (turn in at the end of class) Agenda Run-On sentences - Review Sentence/Fragment/Run on Begin writing paper – Using the Outline! Incorporating research Quoting/paraphrasing Engl155 Tosspon
Quick review: Fragments Fragment! • To be a complete sentence- • Subject • Verb • Express a complete thought • Watch for words like “although” and “because”! • Because I wentto the park.
Clauses • Most clauses have further information after the verb A clause is a group of words with a subject and a verb
Two Types of Clauses A word that joins clauses is a conjunction • Independent clause (Main clause) • Can stand alone as a sentence • Can be joined to another clause • Fred filled a cardboard tube with gunpowder. • Dependent clause (Subordinate clause) • Cannot stand alone as a sentence • Must be joined to an independent clause • Becausehe wanted to make his own firecrackers.
When the sentence starts with the dependent clause, it must have a comma before the independent clause Joining Clauses • A dependent clause can be joined to an independent clause to make a sentence • Fred filled a cardboard tube with gunpowder because he wanted to make his own firecrackers. Or • Because he wanted to make his own firecrackers,Fred filled a cardboard tube with gunpowder.
Run-ons • Run-ons are independent clauses that have been combined incorrectly. • There are several types: • The AND run-on • The Fused run-on • The comma splice We will be going into detail on each one
The and run on (pg 146) • two or more relatively long independent clauses with a coordinating conjunction without any punctuation. Goal 1 AND per sentence (some situations warrant 2) (Because this has no punctuation, we have to read it in one breath.) • I met Charlyce in a yoga class at the YWCA and we liked each other immediately and we soon became friends and we often hang out at each other’s houses.
The Fused run on • two or more independent clauses run together without any punctuation. • The girls made the fire the boys cooked the steaks.
The comma splice run-on • The comma splice: two or more independent clauses run together with only a comma. • I met Charlyce in a yoga class at the YWCA, we soon became friends. • Sounds right? It is actually two separate independent ideas/clauses. We COULD add a ; (semicolon) to make it correct, or we could separate into two sentences.
Review: Run ON Kevin bought me a coke so we went to the park together. Kevin bought me a coke, we went to the park together I went to the store and bought a candy bar and who did I see there but Kevin who got me a coke and so we went to the park together. • Fragment= incomplete • 2 or more independent clauses (whole sentences) combined incorrectly. • Too many ANDS (goal 1-2 “and”s per sentence) • Fused • Jammed together with no punctuation • Comma Splice • Jammed together with just a comma (need comma conjunction!!!)
