so. (FANBOYS)
• A compound sentence can be used to show
A compound sentence has 2 independent clauses. cause and effect.
Each clause can stand by itself as a simple
sentence. And we combine two independent clauses
by using coordinating conjunction or the FANBOYS.

Question: Do you know what is a coordinating

conjunction?
Teacher, it connects words.
Very Good! Coordinating conjunction connects
words, phrases, and clauses that are coordinate to
each other.

Are you familiar with the use of the words in the

acronym FANBOYS?

Okay, let us familiarize the use of the acronym Not yet teacher.
FANBOYS.

1. The word FOR means the same as because.

For example:
 I drank some water, for I was thirsty.

2. The word AND is used to add one thing to

another.
Example:
  A girl ate lots of candy, and she got a
stomachache.

3. The word NOR is used to present an alternative

negative idea to an already stated negative idea.
Example:
 He didn’t study last night, nor did he read
his book.

4. The word BUT means the same as YET. They

both show contrast.
Example:
 Computer games are fun, but it is addictive.

5. The word OR presents an alternative or a choice.

Example:
 He can buy the book, or he can borrow it
from the library.

Example:
 Computer games are fun, yet it is addictive.

7. The word SO indicates effect, result, or

consequence.

Now that you are familiar with the words, let us now
form a sentence using the images below.

What do you think the children doing with the

plants?
Teacher they are helping the plants to grow bigger.
Good guess! The children are nurturing the plants.
How about this image?
What do you think the two kids doing with the Teacher, they are throwing the leaves in the trush.
leaves?

Good guess! They are sweeping the plants dry

leaves.

Now let us combine the two sentences. What do you

coordinating conjunction can we use to join the two
sentences?

Children are nurturing the plants ____ they are Teacher, the word and.
sweeping the plants dry leaves.

Are you sure? Alright let’s see if your answer is

correct.

Children are nurturing the plants and they are

sweeping the plants dry leaves.

Excellent! You are doing a great job!

Now let us discuss the cause and effect in a
compound sentence.

Cause- Explains why something happen.

For example:

Shankar was in pain for he fell down the hill.

The underlined word is the cause. Why do you think Teacher, it explains why something happen.
it is the cause?

Good Job! Now that you know what is cause, let us

see what an effect is.

Effect- Explains what happened.

For example:

Shankar was in pain for he fell down the hill.

The underlined word is the effect. Why do you think Teacher, it explains what happened.
it is the effect?

Very Good! Let us try again. I have here an image

let us study it.

Teacher, the girl stumbled.

Look at this picture, what happen to the girl?

Very Good! The girl stumbled.

She stepped on her shoelace.
Why do you think it happen?

Yes, she stepped on her shoelace.

Now let’s join these sentences and make them one.

But first we need a word that will help us join these
two sentences. What do you think is that word?

 The girl stumbled, _____ she stepped on The word for teacher.
her shoelace.

Let’s see if your answer is correct.

The girl stumbled, for she stepped on her shoelace.

Very Good! The right word is For.

Let’s study the sentence.

He can buy the book, or he can borrow it from the
library.
Teacher, the cause is He can buy the book.
What is the Cause?

He can buy the book, or he can borrow it from the

library. Teacher, the effect is He can borrow it from the
What is the Effect? library.
He can buy the book, or he can borrow it from the
library.
