Learning Objective

Students will be able to use subordinating conjunctions to join a dependent clause to an independent clause.

Teacher Tip

Before Q5, pause and ask students to act out Leo's two actions — climbing the mast AND spotting the island — then challenge them to connect both actions using 'after' in one spoken sentence. This physical rehearsal sharpens their sense of which clause depends on the other.
