HOW TO CONSTRUCT A GOOD SENTENCE To understand sentences, you must first understand clauses, which make up sentences. A clause is defined as a group of words containing both a subject and a verb. Clauses can be independent or dependent. An independent clause contains both a subject and a verb and can stand alone as a sentence. A dependent clause contains both a subject and a verb, but cannot stand alone as a sentence. Dependent clauses are introduced by subordinating conjunctions such as because, that, what, while, who, which, although, if, etc. Kinds of Sentences There are three kinds of sentences: SIMPLE: - A simple sentence consists of one main (or independent) clause.

Sensory images are images created in your head from a very detailed description of something, often using one of the five senses.           - Also it can be what you imagine in your head as you read the story.            - Good narratives make use of image and sound-evoking words to transport a reader into the world of the story.
