Complex sentences are an important step in enabling students to
produce more sophisticated writing. Mastering complex sentences
allows students to have greater control when communicating.
This guide is intended to provide a starting point for you to approach
the teaching of writing in your classroom. It builds on the knowledge
learnt in the other sentence guides.
This guide provides clear grammatical definitions, and unpacks the features of compound sentences and how they function. The guide also offers, as a starting point, some strategies for implementing sentence-level instruction in your classroom. And yes, compound sentences need to be taught in both primary and secondary classes!

With dreams of having a better life, thousands of Chinese risked their lives across the Pacific Ocean to join in the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad from 1863 to 1869. These Chinese laborers worked under extreme and hazardous environments. Due to their ethnic appearance and language barriers, the Chinese were greatly taken advantage of by their employers. These Chinese laborers became pioneers in the collective labor actions of American labor history, while also contributing to the economies of the U.S. and China.
