Story Details

Some words join other words together.

These helpful joining words are called conjunctions.

And puts things together. Sun and sky. Tree and leaf

But shows a difference. Bright day but cold air.

Or gives a choice. Here or there. Now or later.

Because tells why something happens. Rain falls because clouds are full.

So tells what happens next. Clouds open, so rain begins.

When connects time. When night comes, stars appear.

Conjunctions help ideas flow one thought leading to another.

With joining words, sentences grow like paths that connect clearly.
