Fragments, Comma Splices, and Fused Sentences

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

This excellent resource has the audience focus on ways to create complete sentences. As the presentation progresses, they see many examples of sentences that are fragments, run-ons, and ones that are punctuated incorrectly. They then discover how to fix them. Then they take a 10-slide quiz to see if they can correct poorly-written sentences.
