Simple and Compound Sentences

We have been learning about different types of sentences. So far we have learned that there are simple sentences and compound sentences. We used the pictures below to write two simple sentences. We then took our two simple sentences and added a connective to turn them into one compound sentence.
We used this image to help us write our sentences.
