Compound Sentences

Year 5, Year 6

This resource teaches students how to use compound sentences to join related ideas and improve the flow of their writing. It explains how two main clauses can be connected with coordinating conjunctions, when to use each conjunction and how to avoid overusing them. Through examples, explanations and targeted activities, pupils practise creating compound sentences for different purposes, such as showing contrast, giving reasons or offering choices. By mastering this skill, learners can write with greater variety, clarity and cohesion.
