THE COORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS
• F- for introduces the reason for the first clause
• A- and joins two similar ideas together
• N- nor not used very often
• B- but joins two contrasting ideas
• O- or joins two alternative ideas
• Y- yet joins contrasting ideas (like “but”)
• S- so shows the second idea results from the first
AGREEMENT, DISAGREEMENT,
REASON
• Conjunctions are used to show agreement,
disagreement, or reason between two clauses.
• Agreement- and, nor, or
• The two words, phrases, or clauses are
basically saying the same thing
• Disagreement- yet, by, or
• The two parts are saying something different
from one another
• Reason- for, so
• One of the words, phrases, or clauses is
explaining the other
WHEN TO USE COORDINATING
CONJUNCTIONS
• When you have a series of short, related sentences
• I like candy. I like cake.
• I like candy and cake.
• To correct a run-on sentence.
• I want to be a celebrity when I grow up, I am practicing
sports everyday.
• I want to be a celebrity when I grow up, so I am
practicing sports every day.
COORDINATING CONJUNCTION RULES
• If you are joining two independent clauses,
always use a comma before the coordinating
conjunction.
• My favorite soda is Dr. Pepper, but Anne’s is Coca-
Cola.
• If you are joining two short phrases or two
words, a comma isn't necessary.
• I like to eat cake and drink tea.
COORDINATING CONJUNCTION RULES
• The coordinating conjunction goes between
ideas.
• Correct- I like to sleep, but I don’t like to nap.
• Incorrect- But I don’t like to nap, I like to sleep.
A TIP FOR YOU
• When combining sentences with a coordinating
conjunction, remember that it is OK to combine
the information.
• Ex. I like my classes. I like my teachers
• I like my classes and my teachers.

SUBORDINATING CONJUCTIONS

A TIP FOR YOU
If the dependent clause comes at the beginning
of the sentence, a comma should follow it.
• Ex. When he was at the park, the boy played.
If the dependent clause comes after the
independent clause, no comma is necessary.
Ex. The boy played when he was at the park.
