🔵Module 2: W4 - Day 3 - ELA
Lesson Instructions
You will go through two lessons (one in grammar and one in reading).
GRAMMAR
Simple and Compound Sentences
Introduction
Hi grammarians! Today, we will discuss the importance of adding simple and compound sentences to your writing! If we only had simple sentences, it would be pretty boring for us to write and for our readers to read! We should mix up sentence structures, so that we can make our writing more interesting!

In Your Notebook: Rewrite the paragraph. It is written in all simple sentences, but you should try to include at least one compound sentence (try using the FANBOYS conjunctions).
My dog is named Ziggy. Ziggy is short for Zig-Zag. She loves to play fetch. She loves to nap. She is brown and black. She has a broken tail. That is why she is named Ziggy.
