Answer:
I will allow you to be creative in writing your own paragraph.
Explanation:
A simple sentence = one independent clause
Ex.: I went to school.
A compound sentence = two simple sentences connected together (typically with a comma and a coordinating conjunction)
Ex: I went to school, and I learned how to write.
A complex sentence = an independent clause and dependent clause connected together (the order is unimportant, but the punctuation *IS* important.
Ex.: I cleaned my room before I went to school. (indep + dep.)
Ex. Before I went to school, I cleaned my room. (dep. + indep.)
A compound-complex sentence is a combination of the two previous types.
Ex.: I cleaned my room, and I took a shower before I went to school.
Ex.: Before I went to school, I cleaned my room, and I took a shower.
I would be able to read over your paragraph if you want to send it to me. I'll give you feedback.
