Why is this important? It helps us be better writers because we
can use a variety of sentences which makes our writing more interesting.
It helps us understand what we are reading.
Simple Sentence A sentence that has one complete thought.
Examples: My mom and dad went to the movies last
night.My sister went to the mall and to the movies.
Compound Sentence A sentence made up of TWO or more
COMPLETE thoughts.Examples: My mom went to the market, and my
brother went to the park.
My sister ate some popcorn, and I ate some nachos.
How can we tell what type of sentence it is?
1. Find the conjunction (and, or, but, so) 2. Separate the parts of the sentence using a brace map. 3. Ask yourself, “Does the sentence have ONLY 1 complete
thought? If yes, it’s simple. if not, it’s compound.
