Run On Sentences: Define, Identify, and Fix

I offer my apologies for microphone blips! I tried a new audio recording method, and the audio skipped periodically. This video is a brief overview of how to define, identify, and fix run-on sentences. It is intended for anyone who is looking for strategies to strengthen their writing by mastering this fundamental grammatical concept. If you have any writing or English Language Arts requests, send them my way, and I will put together a video for you or send you resources that will help. If you want any extra practice or work that my senior English students do in class, just ask! I can be reached on Twitter @MrColesEnglish or on my YouTube channel MrColes English (space between MrColes and English).
