Can you add a relative clause to a Can you think of the –ough words
this sentence? What punctuation
marks would it need?
Accept any sentence with an embedded
relative clause, e.g. The Great Fire of
London, which started on Puddling
Lane, destroyed many buildings in
England’s capital city. If the sentence
uses the relative pronoun ‘which’ then
it needs commas around the extra
clause. If it uses ‘that’ then no commas
are required.
