| commas and semicolons worksheet: Writing from the Core Dona Young, 2009-09 Writing from the Core is more than a handbook: it is a roadmap that leads to correct and effective writing. -An effective writing style begins with well-written sentences: sentences that speak to the reader clearly and concisely. - Structure and style cross paths at the sentence core: gain control of the sentence core, and you also gain control of your editing and revising skills. - In fact, once you can edit and revise with skill, you may spend more time mulling over your writing and reaching deeper insight, improving substance as well as style. Writing from the Core takes the mystery out of how to produce correct, clear, and concise writing, building confidence along with skill. I love this approach; it's practical yet personal. Writing from the Core is a guide with personality - it takes theory and makes it real. -Elizabeth Anderson, Writing Instructor, College of DuPage A straight-forward handbook that has been infinitely more useful than any handbook or workbook I've used in college. -Dominic Schiralli, Fine Arts major, Indiana University Northwest Students who use this method have a much easier time with composition. Structure becomes easy, so they can focus on building their writing skills. This is a great method producing fantastic results. - Peggy Patlan, Adult Education Instructor, Moraine Valley Community College |

| commas and semicolons worksheet: The Elements of Style Workbook William Strunk Jr, Tip Top Education, 2018-07-10 The Elements of Style Workbook honors the original masterpiece by William Strunk, Jr. published in 1920, with relevant updates for modern times. We have adapted Strunk's original work to include essential exercises (with answer keys) to help novice writers gain command of stylistic structures and devices through guided practice, and to guide more experienced writers through the nuances of commanding style. Essential for today's writers, Strunk's original chapters regarding rules of usage and principles of composition are represented in this workbook. These original lessons, along with style exercises that teach writers to flex their writing style at will, include sentence writing, paragraph writing, and style writing exercises that amplify the impact of the original work by William Strunk, Jr. True to Strunk's original masterpiece, this Elements of Style Workbook addresses the most common and useful issues novice writers face, which are the same ones plaguing English writers for over a century. We honor Strunk's identification of these main writing challenges, and do not dilute the prominence of these points with either less difficult or more advanced grammatical lessons. In this way, we retain Strunk's original focus on the essentials. We have reproduced these essential lessons here and provided targeted practice to enable writers to strengthen those skills. While holding true to the original Elements of Style , this workbook also amplifies some troublesome yet vital stylistic points of practice with the following augmentations: -Grammar on past perfect -Expansive style section based on Noah Webster's style types -Extensive practice with the multitude of styles Webster delineates, using excerpts from literature masters as examples and guides None of these highly useful components were present in the original Elements of Style, nor have they been represented in any edition since then. Style Types The style section draws from Noah Webster's articulate delineations of style types. Each style type draws from a master of literature illustrating that particular style, then challenges writers to imitate, recreate, and alter styles at will. The following style types, identified by Webster, are included in this workbook: 1.Forceful 2.Vehement 3.Elegant 4.Brief 5.Copious or diffusive 6.Precise 7.Neat 8.Loose 9.Feeble 10.Plain Together, these style types represent the vast majority of writing styles used by literary masters in the English language. An English writing workbook like no other With its loyalty to the highly acclaimed and extremely successful original edition of Strunk's The Elements of Style , augmented by Webster's clearly defined articulation of style types and supplemented by ample, targeted, and clear exercises for each component, The Elements of Style Workbook offers an essential writing resource like no other. Whether you are beginning your journey to quality writing or would like to refine your command of voice and style, you will find this updated version of a tried-and-true resource, The Elements of Style Workbook , a vital aid and guide. |

| commas and semicolons worksheet: The Rock-'n'-Roll Guide to Grammar and Style Michael J. Zerbe, 2019-04-16 Believe it or not, you can use your favorite Rock-‘n’-Roll song titles to show you, clearly and concisely, how English grammar and style work—and it’s fun! Inspired by a lifelong love of music and language, this book captures the brilliant bond between music and language, using song titles as an innovative and memorable way to teach grammar and style. The book does not critique grammar and style use in Rock-‘n’-Roll song titles. Instead, it celebrates this use and demonstrates different kinds of sentences, parts of speech, verb tenses, stylistic figures of speech, and more. The book starts with short but complete sentences—song title subject/verb combinations of songs you know such as “Love hurts” and “Voices carry.” The patterns of English grammar and style then become strikingly visible when you see them in the titles of Rock-‘n’-Roll songs you love, all the way from the 1950s to today. |

| commas and semicolons worksheet: Apple Macintosh Encyclopedia Gary Phillips, 2012-12-06 The Apple Macintosh Encyclopedia provides easily accessible, brief and understandable information on the topics that you are most likely to have questions about. We have carefully digested the manuals, books, magazine articles, and other information sources for the Macintosh. These, combined with our own experience in using the Macintosh and other personal computers, have been integrated into an alphabetical sequence of short entries in the style of an encyclopedia. The goal is to provide concise, useful and easy-to-understand information on a particular topic that is quickly accessible when you need it. Much of the information in the entries is not contained in the manuals provided with the Macintosh and various software products. For example, notice the discussion, under WIDTH, of the deferred nature of this command when used with a device name, the discussion of the colon (:) in Multiplan for ranges, or Saving, Problems With. These topics are omitted or inadequately covered in the standard manuals. The Macintosh is the first truly visual computer. In keeping with the highly visual nature of using the Macintosh, we have provided over 100 illustrations. Each shows exactly what you will see on the screen when exploring topics discussed in the text. The Macintosh Encyclopedia opens with a visual guide to icons, and remains highly visual in orientation throughout the text. |
| commas and semicolons worksheet: Writing Workshop in the Elementary Classroom Kathleen Puente, Jenny C. Wilson, 2019-01-12 Writing Workshop in the Elementary Classroom is a culmination of the authors’ work with students and writing for collectively over 35 years. Teaching writing using a workshop methodology can be exciting as it is an interactive approach to writing, but it can also be challenging as it is not the traditional teacher directed whole class lessons that many test preparation curriculums tout. The book takes the reader through the stages of the writing process in the first part, explaining what students are doing and thinking in each stage. In the second part, the authors explain how to manage students, materials, mini lessons, grading and other aspects that help writing workshop classrooms run smoothly. To help with the transition to a workshop method, readers are asked to keep a journal wherein they plan what they will do in their classrooms. |
| commas and semicolons worksheet: Eats, Shoots & Leaves Lynne Truss, 2004-04-12 We all know the basics of punctuation. Or do we? A look at most neighborhood signage tells a different story. Through sloppy usage and low standards on the internet, in email, and now text messages, we have made proper punctuation an endangered species. In Eats, Shoots & Leaves, former editor Lynne Truss dares to say, in her delightfully urbane, witty, and very English way, that it is time to look at our commas and semicolons and see them as the wonderful and necessary things they are. This is a book for people who love punctuation and get upset when it is mishandled. From the invention of the question mark in the time of Charlemagne to George Orwell shunning the semicolon, this lively history makes a powerful case for the preservation of a system of printing conventions that is much too subtle to be mucked about with. |

| commas and semicolons worksheet: Write This Way Gavin Reid, Jenn Clark, Michelle McIntosh, 2024-02-29 Many children avoid writing for a number of reasons – perhaps they find it tedious or frustrating, or perhaps they have dyslexia or dysgraphia. This structured programme of writing activities and lessons makes writing engaging and accessible for reluctant writers, by encouraging primary teachers and learners to work together to develop children's writing skills.

Each section in the book builds on previous skills learned, from word level up to creative writing skills, providing pupils with a complete range of writing tools. The ready-to-use resources for each topic - including mini lessons, discovery tools and activities - offer extensions and adaptations to suit all pupil needs, including fun ideas for multisensory learning, group interventions or to keep pupils learning outside of the classroom. For school staff working with children who find writing challenging, this practical toolkit provides a range of activities based on solid research and hands-on experience that can be incorporated straight into lessons and teaching practices. |
