WHY THIS LESSON?
This is a higher-level writing skill that students with ambitions of genuine success in high school, college entrance exams, and the even more challenging initial college or university freshman year need to master. This lesson will help parents ‘get a fix’ on their child’s current skills and needs.
Lesson explains conjunctive adverbs with examples, plus 10 practice sentences for students to compose or combine on their own.
Using conjunctive adverbs (some even in phrases) correctly is the mark of an advanced secondary writer who wants to make a great impression. These conjunctive adverbs include words such as:
- However
- Indeed
- Therefore
- Accordingly
- On the other hand
- Nevertheless
- And more
Sometimes they start a sentence, and sometimes they are used after a semicolon, This lesson describes these conjunctive adverbs; tells how to use them correctly; and gives many examples of sentences using them.
It follows with a brief assessment asking students to combine sentences using an appropriate conjunctive adverb as a transition.
This is an excellent lesson for 8th graders, advanced 7th grade students, or high school students who ambitions include higher education success.
