What I learned: I learned about commas and what they do. Here is a joke that explain a little bit about a comma and what it does.
So if the Comma wasn't there it will be like Let's eat our Grandma for like actual. If the Comma is after Let's eat it will be like Let's eat something else not like eating your grandma.I also learned (Well I kinda knew this except the last one already) that the Comma can separate units of a meaning in a sentence.
Example 1: It can separate items in a list. e.g. Danny went to Pak n save he bought bread, raw steak, lettuce and tomato for his delicious sandwich.
Fun Fact: Did you know that you could put the comma before the and e.g. (By the way it's the same example but one slight change) Danny went to Pak n save he bought bread, raw steak, lettuce, and tomato for his delicious sandwich. Did you spot it? Well look at lettuce there is a comma there.
Example 2: A comma can separate a Subordinate Opening e.g. Although he was tired, Dan still went to the party.
New word I learn't: Subordinate Opening. What is a Subordinate Opening? Or you can also call it Subordinate Clause. Subordinate Clause/Subordinate Opening is a little sentence at the start to make it better like Although he was tired, Dan still went to the party. Even though "Dan still went to the party" itself is a sentence already, by itself.
Example 3: Well we didn't learn the third one but if you wonder what it is, it is a Relative Clause.(By the way a comma can separate a Relative Clause)
Next step: Practise more on commas and stop using too much "ands".
What i'm proud of: My Handwriting did get a little bit better and how much work I got done.
Here is my work:

ReplyDeleteGreat blog and great learning.I love of how you put a picture of your learning from you literacy book.Also I liked that you put on of the example like the lets eat, Grandma.But next time what you can improve on is that when you get a mistake don't put a huge line going across just put a small one.
