CONNECTIVES WORKSHEET AND PRESENTATION *SPAG*

This is a short workshop to introduce or re-introduce students to transition words (connectives) as a writing tool.

The worksheet contains definitions, usage, and examples.

There is also a cloze (fill in the blanks) exercise for students to apply their knowledge immediately.

Students can keep the worksheet for use as a reference tool when writing.

***The presentation is saved as .ppt, and pptx AND pdf.***

SAMPLE PROCEDURE

2. Repeat this for each function.

3. Have students fill in the blanks of their cloze exercise.

4. Reveal sample answers on screen, and discuss possible alternatives.
