Sentence Combining

In this worksheet, students combine pairs of statements into strong compare-and-contrast sentences. They are instructed to use transitions such as however, while, although, both, or in contrast. This activity strengthens sentence fluency by teaching students how to merge ideas logically and clearly. Learners practice transforming simple sentences into more complex ones that show relationships between ideas. This enhances academic writing by reinforcing transition word usage and improving comparative phrasing. It also supports understanding of contrast and similarity language patterns essential for essay writing.
