Essential Question: What are prepositions and how are they

Page 12: Grammar Notes Unit 3 Part 2

Note: Prepositions are NOT usually followed by verbs.

Ending Sentences with Prepositions

Although most grammarians agree that it is OK to end sentences with prepositions, it is BETTER not to. LOL

Before using a preposition, ask, “Is it necessary?”

Page 16: Grammar Notes Unit 3 Part 2

Ending Sentences with Prepositions Tip: If the sentence doesn’t work without the preposition, keep it in. And it’s usually OK to end with a preposition if the preposition is necessary and the sentence would sound awkward when rewritten.

Page 17: Grammar Notes Unit 3 Part 2

Phrasal Verb: A set of words (a verb-plus-preposition combo) that acts as a single verb unit.

look up make up run awaysleep over

held uprun into show up throw upcheer up

Essential Question: What is the difference between

conjunctions and interjections?

Page 24: Grammar Notes Unit 3 Part 2

A conjunction connects words, phrases, and parts of sentences.

Coordinating Conjunctions Correlative Conjunctions Subordinating Conjunctions

Page 25: Grammar Notes Unit 3 Part 2

Coordinating Conjunctions are used to organize sentences by joining other words, phrases, or clauses that have the same construction: parallel construction. For

And Nor But Or Yet So

Page 26: Grammar Notes Unit 3 Part 2

Parallel Construction Squiggly was often distracted by this or that. Squiggly went to the store and bought some

chocolate. Squiggly went to the store, and Aardvark

wondered when he would return.

Squiggly picked Grammar Girl and Aardvark and Anna and Charlie and Harry and Sally.

NOTE: Don’t overuse and or or. Instead, use commas

Page 27: Grammar Notes Unit 3 Part 2

joined by and.
