Dear Students,
In reviewing the sentences that were submitted with the reverse outline of the midterm exam, I noticed that there continued to be some confusion regarding what a clause is, what an incomplete sentence is, what a compound sentence is, and what a complex sentence is. Therefore, I am reposting this blog post from the other week. For anyone interested in some holiday word games, I hope you will introduce your younger relatives to my exciting children’s book about playing with words. You can access it for free here:
Or purchase the “complete” edition on Google Play

Have a good holiday.
Just to review some of the issues regarding complete sentences in SWE that we discussed today, I have put together the following resources for your to review. I hope they may help in answering any questions that you may have about complete and incomplete sentences in SWE.
