Blog it assignments- Run on sentences and fragments.

In Blog it we had to take a quiz about run on sentences and fragments. We had the choice between two quizzes, I decided to do the second quiz. I liked the quiz just because it made me feel so smart. I got every question right! The quiz I took gave you silly prizes--not real prizes you can have but you can enjoy them on the screen. The quiz was only about fragments, but I'm pretty sure I know what a run on sentence is. Writes need to remember to use punctuation even thought they are writing fast to get everything out. In my blogosphere I don't really notice if I have run on  sentences or fragments.  If I do I would really like to know so that I can make an effort to become a better writer. My example of a run on sentence: Today I was hiking up a very large mountain and I saw a bunch of wild turkeys they looked at me and squawked then hurried off as I kept walking I ran into a big giant bear luckily I had a companion with me so as we ran from the bear I tripped my companion and I got away from the bear unfortunately my companion did not. My example of a fragment: Hiking up the mountain. If you ever need help with run on sentences or fragments I suggest you watch This video.

  1. Nice work on creatine examples of both a run-on and fragment! I think it is okay to use them in your blogosphere as long as they are being used as a literary device to enhance the tone of your writing.
