This document provides instruction on the four main types of sentences in English: simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex. It defines each type and provides examples. Simple sentences contain one independent clause. Compound sentences join two independent clauses with coordinating conjunctions or semicolons. Complex sentences contain an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. Compound-complex sentences contain at least two independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
3. #1: Simple Sentence
A simple sentence has one subject
and one verb
I like to study grammar.
A simple sentence is also called an
independent clause.
An independent clause ends with a
period or semicolon.
4. Simple Sentences
Examples:
Carol’s sweater is red.
You and Alex need to be
quiet.
Ms. Bennett did a
cartwheel and a backflip.
5. #2: Compound Sentence
A compound sentence is made up of
two or more simple sentences joined by
one of the following:
A comma and a coordinating conjunction
I like to study grammar, and I love this class.
A semicolon
I like to study grammar; I love this class.
A semicolon and an adverbial conjunction
I like to study grammar; therefore, I love this class.
7. Two independent clauses joined together
I love you, and you love me.
Independent
clause
Independent
clause
8. Semicolons
“If the relation between the ideas expressed
in the main clauses is very close and
obvious without a conjunction, you can
separate the clauses with a semicolon”
(Little, Brown Handbook, 9th Edition, p.
361).
9. COMPOUND SENTENCE:
SEMICOLON
Kelsey has benefited from her writing
exercises; she has good grammar and
punctuation.
Tiffany works in San Francisco; she
runs The Duck.
Elaine pays attention in class; she
takes copious notes
11. COMPOUND SENTENCE:
CONJUNCTIVE ADVERBS
Thomas is cool; moreover, he is fashionable
.
Luke’s grandmother buys him sweaters;
however, he does not wear them.
Clause 1 Clause 2
Independent Independent
12. #3: Complex Sentence#3: Complex Sentence
A complex sentence is a simple
sentence (independent clause) to which
a part of a sentence (dependent clause)
has been added.
Because I like to study grammar, I
love this class.
I love this class because I like to study
grammar.
13. A dependent clause joined to an independent clause.
(The dependent clause needs the rest of the
sentence for support.)
Because you love me, I love you.
Dependent
clause
Independent clause
14. A dependent clause contains a subject and verb. It begins
with a subordinating conjunction, and thus it does not express
a completed thought. A dependent clause is also called a
subordinate clause.
Dependent clauses, like babies, cannot stand alone.
Because you love me.
Fragment!
15. A Tip on Punctuation
Since dependent clauses are only part of
a sentence, you can never connect them
to another sentence with a semicolon.
Semicolons are only used between two
independent clauses.
I have loved you for years ; although I never
admitted it.
I have loved you for years, although I never
admitted it. OK
No!
16. Common Subordinating (Dependent)
Conjunctions
after even if now that that where
although even
though
once though whereas
as if rather than unless wherever
as if whenever since until whether
because in order
that
so that when which
before than in case while
17. Complex Sentences
Examples:
When Trey was little, he played with
blocks.

Ava stands at the bottom of the cliff
while the climber moves up the rock.

37. REVIEW: How to Answer
The In-Class Essay Question
Write an essay arguing for the supplies you have chosen to
take with you into the wild. Present the issue to readers, and
develop an argument for the purpose of confirming,
challenging, or changing your readers’ views on which supplies
are the most important for survival.
Your final essay should be around 500 words. This will be
around four pages, hand written. This, of course, is an
estimate. Handwriting varies greatly. Between three and six
pages will likely be the norm for this essay.
Good Luck! May the odds be ever in your favor
38. Introduction and Thesis
Focus your presentation of the issue: Your
introduction should explain to the reader both
the situation you face and why you have limited
resources.
Thesis: Compose a thesis that makes your
position unambiguous, appropriately qualified,
and clearly arguable. (Your thesis will likely be
near the end of your introduction).
39. Body Paragraphs
Paragraph one: topic sentence supporting your first
item.
Give reasons for your choice and support them with
examples, scenarios, or anecdotes.
Paragraph two: topic sentence supporting your second
item.
Give reasons for your choice and support them with
examples, scenarios, or anecdotes.
Additional Paragraphs: Repeat using the same or similar
strategies
40. Counterargument:
Write a counterargument that addresses why you wouldn’t
take the items the other people in your group think are very
important. You should address specific tools others in your
group chose to take. You may do this in each body
paragraph as you argue for your choice, or you may do it as
a separate paragraph after you finish arguing for your tools.
For example, you might start by writing, “while some people
might prefer a sleeping bag, I found it to be a poor choice
compared to the blanket.” Then you can explain why.
41. Conclusion:
If your adventure is over, describe how it ended and
how you have recovered, suffered, or benefitted from it.
OR
If the adventure is ongoing, consider predicting your
future in the wild.
What are you chances of success?
What do you see as your biggest challenge?
How might you fail?
