Sentence Combining Practice

Join short sentences to make clear, fluent sentences. Try different conjunctions, such as and, but, so, because, when, while, although and since.

Choose the smoother sentence

A conjunction can link ideas and show how they relate.

1.At the stargazing night, which sentence combines the ideas most smoothly?
  • The telescope was powerful. It showed us Saturn's rings.
  • The telescope was powerful because it showed us Saturn's rings.

Combine each pair

For each pair, write two different combined sentences. Choose conjunctions that make sense and use punctuation correctly.

2.Sienna set up the telescope. Zach checked the star map.
3.Ivy wrapped herself in a blanket. The night air was chilly.
4.The clouds covered the moon. The group kept watching the sky.

Check the sentence

Read each combined sentence carefully, then answer the question.

5.In “Zach felt tired, so she sat down on the blanket”, which word joins the two ideas?
6.A student joins these ideas: “The sky grew darker. The stars became easier to see.” Write one fluent sentence using because.
