Sentence-combining is a practice for teaching students how to write clear, grammatically correct, and syntactically complex sentences. Students are taught to consolidate information from two or more “kernel” sentences (simple sentences with no modifiers that can be combined) into a single sentence using all the information provided, eliminating any redundancies without altering the meaning provided in the simple sentences (Goodrich et al. , 2020) . This activity allows students to exercise greater control over syntax (i.e. , the arrangement of words and phrases) by increasing their use of complex clause structure (e.g. , coordinating, subordinating clauses) and conjunctions. Sentence-combining is most effectively taught using explicit instruction.  \nExplicit instruction is a methodology for teaching characterized by supports that guide students through clear objectives and rationales for learning, demonstrations of the objective, and supported practice with regular feedback until mastery of the skill has been achieved (Archer & Hughes, 2011). The general outline of a lesson guided by the principles of explicit instruction have the following six teaching functions: (1) review, during which relevant previous learning is reviewed; (2) prese","cbCaisLqcyrfDKJp","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisLqcyrfDKJp","pdf",1455068,21,"English","# Contents\n## What Is It?\n## For Whom Is It Intended?\n## How Does It Work?\n## How Can Families Support Implementation?\n## How Adequate Is the Research Base?\n## How Practical Is It?\n## How Effective Is It?\n## What Questions Remain?\n## Where Can I Learn More?\n## References","[{\"question\":\"What is sentence-combining in this guide?\",\"answer\":\"Sentence-combining teaches students to consolidate two or more kernel sentences into one sentence that keeps the original meaning while removing redundancies.
