Combining Sentences Using Semicolons and Colons Splitting Sentences
In this lesson, the teacher provides direct instruction to students on combining sentences using semicolons and colons. Students also practice splitting sentences to improve the clarity of their writing. Students focus on revising their own informative drafts for effectively combining sentences using semicolons and colons or for splitting sentences before transitioning to a peer discussion of revisions.
