Subordinating conjunction is a word or phrase that links a dependent
clause to an independent clause. This word or phrase indicates that a clause
has informative value to add to the sentence’s main idea, signaling a cause-
and-effect relationship or a shift in time and place between the two clauses.

more subordinating conjunction. It will be two points each subordinating
conjunction, below 5 conjunction will get 2 points deduction. (10 minutes).

students.

VALUEING

writing their bravest moments while adding subordinating conjunction. The

conjunction. Crucially the teacher will further explain the importance of the
subordinating conjunction.
