Week 4 Journal Writing

In your writing journal, you will begin to practice building sentences with adjective and adverbial clauses. For this journal entry, discuss some of the advantages of the place where you live. Using the lists associated with each of these types of clauses, write at least three (3) sentences including adjective clauses and three (3) sentences including adverbial clauses. Underline the adjective and adverbial clauses. Consider their function in both as a modifier and an aspect of your writing style.

Adverbial
Although I prefer to live in Pittsburgh, Florida isn't as bad as I thought it would be.
The best time to come to Cape Coral is in the fall because it is less humid
I haven't made many new friends since I've moved here.

Adjectival
I moved back in with my parents, who work from home in Cape Coral.
My cats, who love laying in the sun, are very happy in Florida.
I'd much rather be in a city that offers more activities for young adults.

If these sentences are less descriptive of where I live than of my experience with the town, it's  because I really dislike it here.
