Fundamentals Writing and Literature Sentence Openers 1-3 Presentation
- 1. Sentence Openers (With me, Mrs. Cannon)
- 2. There are 6 ways to open a sentence. They add variety to the way our sentences sound. It would be boring if all sentences sounded the same (like these three do). Today, we will learn 3 of them.
- 3. Since variety is our friend (especially in writing), I have a friend to help you learn sentence openers. Mrs. Cannon’s Roaming Gnome
- 4. Sentence opener # 1: Subject opener A subject opener opens with the subject of the sentence. For example… I love to feel the sand between my toes!
- 5. Since “I” is the subject of the sentence “I love the feeling of sand between my toes,” it is a #1 subject opener. I love to feel the sand between my toes!
- 6. Sentence opener # 2: Preposition opener A preposition opener begins with a preposition. For example… On this cruise ship, the food is fantastic!
- 7. Prepositions show the relationship between two nouns. In this sentence, “cruise ship” and “food” are connected with the word “on.” On this cruise ship, the food is fantastic! Want the full list of prepositions? See page 6 of the Student Resource Notebook.
- 8. Sentence opener # 3: “-ly” adverb opener An “-ly” opener starts with an “-ly” word followed by a comma. For example… Hungrily, I munched on the conch creole.
- 9. Since it begins with an “-ly” adverb, this is clearly a #3 sentence opener. Hungrily, I munched on the conch creole.
- 10. We will cover the other three sentence openers another day. Have a question? Just let me know!
