Be sure to put your who clause into a comma cage! (Each “who” has claws, so it needs a cage)
REMEMBER THAT YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO TAKE OUT THE "WHO CLAUSE" AND STILL HAVE A COMPLETE SENTENCE.
PART 1) Using what you have learned about the "who clause," turn each of these into a sentence with a "who clause." Be sure to bold and underline the word "who." DO NOT write any questions.
Cindy --- old --- strong
Carlos --- plays guitar -- sings beautifully
Titi --- races on the track team --- gets good grades
Minny -- best baker in the town --- loves math
Charlotte -- hairdresser --- has 2 children
Jacky --- plays basketball --- dates the head cheerleader
Bill -- writes amazing poetry --- has a vineyard in France
My Mom – beautiful —smart
The teacher – strict — fair
My aunt – math wizard – engineer

PART 2) Create a who clause sentence for each person --- choose two different descriptions to put into each sentence. Try to use each description only one time.

PART 3) Write an essay using 2 of the characters from your "who clause" sentences above. Your essay (story) should be at least 12 to 20 sentences and 150 to 200 words.
There should also be lots of description. The two "who clause" sentences should be IN your essay somewhere as part of your description.
Be sure to bold and underline the word "who."
