Worksheet Overview

boy in hat and scarf

 

Stephen put on his hat and scarf. It was a cold day.

 

These two sentences can be joined using the word because.

Stephen put on his hat and scarf because it was a cold day.

 

We can also use the word as to join the sentences.

Stephen put on his hat and scarf as it was a cold day.

 

We can also join them using the word so, but we have to swap them round to do this.

It was a cold day, so Stephen put on his hat and scarf.

 

Our writing is more interesting if we use different connecting words to join sentences.

 

Shall we try some questions?

 

boy thinking
