*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. Do not use a semi-colon.

Sentence 1: I was worried about you.
Sentence 2: I thought we were going to meet at the pub after class on Friday.
Sentence 3: When I got there, you were nowhere in sight, and you weren't answering your phone.

I was worried about you because I thought we were going to meet at the pub after class on Friday, but when I got there, you were nowhere in sight, and you weren't answering your phone.

I thought we were going to meet at the pub after class on Friday, but when I got there you were nowhere in sight, and you weren't answering your phone, so I was worried about you.

I was worried about you when you did not meet me at the pub after class on Friday or answer you phone.

Great try, everyone!

Janet, be sure not to omit important information when combining the sentences.
