    Using Transitions




    A conjunction is a type of transition that joins two small sentences to make longer more complex sentences. ANDBUT, and OR are the most popular, and are used more than any other.

    Directions: 
    • Cut out each page to make the Transitions word booklet.
    • I will come around and staple the booklet across the top so that it stays together.
    • Then glue the booklet into your notebook
    Notes:
    Using Transitions
    • Transition words help writing to flow from one idea to another
    • They can be used in the beginning, middle, or end of sentences
    • The type of transition to use depends on the purpose
