Hannah R. Per4 said...

@david: the history the narrator writes about the rocks(island) is that they are very slippery and one slip can cause death either by drowning or the sharks, i think.

Miguel V.™☺ said...

Wow. This test will be hard. ¬.¬
I dont get independent and dependent clauses since i spaced out while Ms.Gladden was teaching.

Paige H. Per.4 said...

@ jen
no u cant put it on one page ms. gladden told us that the first week...

Paige H. Per.4 said...

@ callie
ms. gladden didn't tell your class not to do that? i did it the first time and she said it was fine for that time, but in the future to put it on two pages, since it goes in our book or something...

Paige H. Per.4 said...

...you know the book with all our stuff from the whole year...

Anonymous said...

miguel, i explained it to you already.

Hannah R. Per4 said...

@miguel: here, hope this helps:


Simple sentence - one independent clause.

The dog barks.

Complex sentence - one independent and one or more dependent clauses.

After the dog barks, it goes to sleep.

Compound sentence - two or more independent clauses.

The dog barks, and then it goes to sleep.

Compound-complex sentence - two or more independent and one or more
dependent clauses.

After the dog barks, it goes to sleep, and then it wakes up.

Declarative sentence - a sentence that makes a statement and always ends in a period.

The moon reflects the light from the sun.

Imperative sentence - sentences that give a command or an order. Imperative sentences differ from conventional sentences in that their subject, which is always "you," is understood rather than expressed.

Stand on your head.

Interrogative sentence - a sentence that asks a question.

Who won the game last night?

Exclamatory sentence - a sentence with strong feeling or emotion; a more forceful version of a declarative sentence only with an exclamation point at the end.

I hate when that happens!
