Simple and Complex Sentences Presentation

This lesson presentation introduces the concept of independent (main clauses) and dependent (supporting clauses). Learners are asked to sort out clauses into dependent and independent clauses. First learners are introduced to conjugating connectives and then they are asked to use them to form complex sentences by combining the independent and dependent clauses. Interesting pictures and videos that capture the interest of learners are used as a prompt to get learners to try and write complex and simple sentences to recount what they have seen on the picture or video.
