The Adverb sentence & The Prepostion sentence

Adverbs describe verbs, e.g Surprisingly, Firstly, Confusingly, Remarkably. Adverb sentence starters add interest or intrigue to our work.

Remember the ruleWhen you start a sentence with an adverb, place a comma after the adverb then write the rest of the sentence.

Examples: Accidentally, Shockingly, Concerningly, Excitedly, Significantly, Similarly, Unfortunately, Fortunately.

My own sentences:

Accidentally, Toni crashed her car into a truck. 

Concernally, she survived even after the car blew up. 

Thankfully, someone found her before she passed out.

Fortunately, Toni was taken to the hospital and her wounds were treated.

Similarly, the same thing happened to Toni's brother but he died.

Viciously, Toni attacked the drunk truck driver for not watching where he was driving.


The Preposition sentence:

Examples: In, Against, Between, Over, Behind, Within, Under, Below, At, For, Throughout, Near, About.

A preposition gives location or movement.

Remember the rule: When you start the sentence with a preposition, you need to put a comma when the movement or position ends.

Example sentences: In the beginning, we talked a lot.

Throughout the lesson, I tried not to fall asleep.

Near the basketball court, is the rubbish bin.

My own sentences:

Between when Toni's brother died and the present, Toni has never forgiven the truck driver.

In the end, Toni ended her grieving and got her life together.

Throughout everything that happened, Toni was happy but she still misses her brother.
