subordination part 2

Here is where I ask you to write 5 sentences using subordination.

subordination in sentences

Creating sentence variety allows you to maintain reader interest and to communicate the relationships between ideas.

Please read this link at Temple. We have discussed coordination in class, and this link explains how subordination and coordination work together: Cal State.

REMEMBER, there are four basic sentence structures: simple, compound, complex, and compound complex. Ottawa has a good discussion of the first three structures, the ones we've discussed in class.

Which of the links is the most helpful to you as a writer? Why? (No need for a full paragraph, but do play with sentence structures in your response.)
