Conquering the Comma

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Thoroughly review where to put commas: after an introductory clause, before a coordinating conjunction, around nonessential phrases, etc. Furthermore, avoid comma splices by adding a conjunction or semicolon or by starting a new sentence altogether. A 30-slide PowerPoint provides opportunities to practice correct placement of commas.
