Expanding Sentences: Summer Sun

Bask in the summer heat while you learn how subordinating conjunctions can help you add detail to your sentences! In this worksheet, students will read eight simple sentences about summer activities. They will need to expand each of them into a complex sentence using the provided subordinating conjunction. Students can learn about grammar while adding creative detail to simple sentences! 

Designed for a third-grade curriculum, this worksheet can help students get a stronger grasp on how to use subordinating conjunctions in a complex sentence structure. This skill can help learners as they learn to write using more detail. Learners can also develop their editing skills as they evaluate and improve upon pre-written sentences.
