When connecting related but independent clauses of a sentence

Semicolons are correctly and effectively used when connecting related but independent clauses of a sentence.

The semicolon (;) is a punctuation mark that separates major sentence elements. A semicolon can be used between two closely related independent clauses, provided they are not already connected by a coordinating conjunction.

The semi colon is employed to connect similar ideas that are independently placed in sentences. If you join the ideas with a semi colon, you don't have to use conjunctions.

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

It is back to school time in much of the world. Calm, easy mornings are replaced with busy, hurried ones. Children wake up early and get ready for school. Many parents are also getting ready for work, helping their children and preparing food for lunches.

But, don’t forget about breakfast!

When things get wildly busy in the morning, some people skip breakfast to save time. But that may be a big mistake for students.

Whether at home, on the way to school or at school -- eating something healthy for breakfast may help a student get better grades.
