Review Notes of all we've done so far...
We’ve expanded our sentences with good “fluff” : adjectives, prepositional phrases, appositives, and direct objects.

- ADJ –

·       word that describes

·       when using more than one, divide with a comma

- PP –

·       preposition and a noun

·       use comma when PP comes at the beginning of a sentence

- APP -

·       appositive renames a noun in the sentences

·       use comma to divide appositive from independent clause

- DO -

·       noun that receives the action of the verb

 

Examples:

¨   The dexterous, talented artist painted.

¨   The dexterous, talented artist, Vincent van Gogh, painted.

¨   The dexterous, talented artist, Vincent van Gogh, painted numerous masterpieces.
