Check understanding
- Identify conjunctions, prepositions, and interjections in sentences and explain their function
- Explain how removing a preposition or conjunction changes the meaning of a sentence

“If you ask your child what the word "although" or "ouch!" does in a sentence, can they explain one is a conjunction that joins ideas and the other is an interjection that expresses feeling?”
