Conjunctions & Commas Practice

The school play is almost ready, but its program needs a grammar check. Read each item carefully. A subordinating conjunction joins a dependent clause to a main clause. Use a comma after an introductory dependent clause; usually, do not put a comma before a dependent clause that follows the main clause.

Spot the conjunction

For each sentence, identify the subordinating conjunction.

1.Because the stage lights were bright, Jamal wore his sunglasses during rehearsal. Which word is the subordinating conjunction?

2.Ravi will move the scenery after the actors finish their scene. Which word begins the dependent clause?

Fix the commas

Rewrite each sentence with commas in the correct places. If no comma is needed, write the sentence as it is.

3.Before the curtain rises Isabella checks that every prop is in place.

4.The actors stayed in character while the audience found their seats.

5.Although the costume was too large Ravi wore it proudly.

6.Jamal practiced his lines because he wanted to remember every word.

TrueFalse

Choose and create

Use the comma rule to make your choices, then try writing a sentence of your own.

7.Choose the correctly punctuated sentence.

When the music begins, the dancers enter.
When the music begins the dancers enter.

8.Choose the correctly punctuated sentence.

The audience clapped, when the final song ended.
The audience clapped when the final song ended.

9.Join these ideas into one sentence using although. Add a comma if it is needed: The microphone stopped working. Isabella kept singing.

10.Write an original sentence about the school play. Begin with a dependent clause using when, because, before, or although, and place the comma correctly.
