Pattern 4 SentencesFor Dummies! By: Brandon Bell and DaysiCastro.
Pattern 4 deals with a series of comma with no conjunctions. • Tip: NO ANDS!
Incorrect way! • My taco had lettuce, and tomatoes, and cheese. • Help: how can this sentence be fixed? • Take the ands out of the sentence because pattern 4 is without any conjunctions.
Correct way! • Lettuce, cheese, tomatoes were the extra accessories to my taco. • Once again no ands or it will be incorrect!
Form! • The form that you want to put it in is: A,B,C which is just the series of commas.
How do you remember this? • Just think pattern 4 is after 1,2,3 (comma,comma,comma,) • This is the only pattern that does this!
Another example! • Football, baseball, golf are all American sports. • Perfect sentence! Looking for 3 subjects and no conjunctions!
GAME! • In the morning I ate ___ , ___ , ___. • Words: eggs, ice cream, bacon, chicken nuggets, milk, and pizza. • Which one best fits in the blank?
More games! • The pets that will go in my fish tank are a dog, guppy, and shark. • Which two things are wrong with this sentence? • Correct them!
