Pages 1 - 8
Activity 2: Correcting Run-On Sentences 1 - 8
Correct the run-on sentences by either using a period, a semi-colon, a comma and a coordinating conjunction, make one sentence a subordinate clause and join it with the main clause with a semi-colon and a common subordinating word such as "because, since, when, etc."

Write each sentence and correct them. Underline the subject and italicize the verb. Make sure that the verb corresponds with the subject.
Activity 4: Combining Sentences 1 - 5
Combine the short choppy sentences into one sentence. Make sure that they are punctuated correctly and the subject - verb are in agreement.

Rewrite the paragraph, correcting the run-on sentences, and underline the subject-verb agreements.

Critiqued the presentations
Too many bullet points
Bullet points were composed of long sentences rather than main ideas
Henry and Leonela read from the screen but did not provide additional information from the text.
Benedict - had more spare bullet points and had graphically cleaner arrangement of ideas
Did not read from the screen
Students took notes and will submit at the end of the presentations.
