Subordinating & Coordinating Conjunctions

Importance 

Subordinating & coordinating conjunctions are important because they join different clauses to form long, well constructed sentences.

What is a clause? 

An independent clause is a phrase that can stand alone as it’s own sentence. 



The car is red.

A dependent clause is a phrase that needs to have another one in order to make it a complete sentence. 

When the kids drove the car.

When to use Coordinating Conjunctions 

Use it to join independent clauses, phrases, and individual words.



“And”, “but”, “or”, “nor”, “so”, or “yet” can be used.

Examples of Coordinating Conjunctions 

I wanted to go over my friends house but I had a lot of homework.

When to use Subordinate Conjunctions 

Introduces a dependent clause and shows the relationship between the dependent and independent clauses.



Common conjunctions are “after”, “although”, “as”, “because”, “before”, “how”, “if” and “once”.

Examples of Subordinating Conjunctions  If you do your homework, you can play with the dog.
