Subordinating Conjunctions

This grammar packets contains 30 exercises for students to complete using subordinating conjunctions. Fifteen of these conjunctions are used, and students are able to practice knowing when a comma is needed and when it is not by filling in the blanks. Each pair of sentences uses the selected subordinating conjunction twice, once with it at the beginning of the sentence, and again in the middle. When a sentence begins with the selected word, a comma is placed in the middle of the sentence indicating that there will need to be separation between the independent and dependent clauses. On the other hand, no comma is included when the word is placed in the middle of the sentence.

 

This is a great activity to use on a unit on commas, on introductory clauses or on subordinating conjunctions only. Product is excellent for homework practice, independent practice, remediation, acceleration, test prep, or review. Answer key with sample sentences is included.
