*SENTENCE COMBINATION*

Learning to combine ideas into more complex sentences is an important writing skill. There are many ways to do this. Try to combine the following three sentences.


Sentence 1: Many people in Canada are looking forward to spring.
Sentence 2: Spring is particularly appreciated in a country where most people experience a very long a long winter.
Sentence 3: This winter has seemed longer than most, with snow still on the ground in many places.

Spring is particularly appreciated in a country where most people experience a very long winter, so many people in Canada are looking forward to spring; unfortunately, this winter has seemed longer than most, with snow still on the ground in many places.

Well done, Eugenie. But I wonder if you could come up with a sentence that doesn't rely on a semi-colon to join the clause.
