About this resource
This quiz focuses on subordinating conjunctions and complex sentence punctuation, specifically targeting the SWABI acronym (Since, When, After, Because, If) that represents common subordinating conjunctions. The content is appropriate for 9th grade English students who are developing advanced punctuation skills and deepening their understanding of sentence structure. Students need to recognize that subordinating conjunctions create dependent clauses that require specific comma placement rules: when a dependent clause begins a sentence, it must be followed by a comma before the independent clause, but when the dependent clause follows the independent clause, no comma is needed. The exercises require students to identify subordinating conjunctions within sentences and apply proper comma usage in complex sentences, demonstrating mastery of both grammatical terminology and punctuation conventions. Created by Katie Isch, an English teacher in the US who teaches grade 9. This quiz serves as an excellent tool for reinforcing complex sentence structure and punctuation rules through targeted practice with subordinating conjunctions. Teachers can use this as a formative assessment to gauge student understanding of dependent and independent clause relationships, as a warm-up activity to activate prior knowledge before introducing more complex sentence patterns, or as homework practice to solidify comma usage rules with SWABI conjunctions. The quiz effectively supports Common Core standards L.9-10.1 for demonstrating command of grammar and usage conventions, and L.9-10.2 for demonstrating command of capitalization and punctuation, particularly in complex sentence structures that high school students encounter frequently in academic writing.
