Spring Break: Dependent and Independent Clauses

Spring has sprung! With the help of this cheerful worksheet, your grammar skills can spring forward too! After reading a brief introduction that explains the two types of clauses and complex sentences, learners will read 10 engaging, vernal sentences. They’ll need to identify the dependent clause, independent clause, and subordinating conjunction in each one. 

This worksheet is a great choice for helping middle schoolers improve their knowledge of sentence structure and grammar. A strong understanding of how dependent and independent clauses come together to make complex sentences can facilitate students writing their own varied, grammatically correct sentences.
