[LIT] Sentence Combining

[kimberlee hannan]

I saw a demonstration of this from a professor from Florida at the CATE
conference in the spring.  It was fascinating how she managed to get us to
take teeny tiny sentences and turn them into a good meaty sentence very
similar to the original in Across Five Aprils.

I understand this is NOT a new technique.  She used it for revision, ELD
students, and reading comprehension.

Has anyone had any experience with this?

Laugh when you can, apologize when you should, let go of what you can't
change, kiss slowly, play hard, forgive quickly, take chances, give
everything, have no regrets.. Life's too short to be anything but happy.
