Mr. Buxton I don't understand where and when to put a comma in a compex sentence. Will you please help me understand.
-Sarah N.
Also Mr. Buxton I went on Spelling City and Lesson 3 was not there.

When I watched the complex sentence video I found out where to put the comma, so you put the comma after a dependent clause not a independent clause. but i still don't understand why you don't put a comma before a subordinating cunjunction. That is what you told me in class.

Thanks for putting the excersizes up on the blog Mr. Buxton they really helped me study for the grammer test
For prepositional frases I wanted to make sure I was doing this right. During the movie.
Preposition-during
object-movie
