RELATIVE CLAUSES

Activity for my ACCESO students.
We are working hard with compound sencences lately.
Remember that Relative Clauses have the same function in the Compound Sentence as an adjective in a Simple Sentence, that's why they get just beside the NOUN they describe. Rememeber that
- DEFINING RELATIVE CLAUSES give essential information to describe the noun, they don't have comas and the main links are: WHO (for people), WHICH (for things) & THAT (for both).
- NON-DEFINING RELATIVE CLAUSES give extra information, go between comas and the main links are: WHO (for people) & WHICH (for things).
I have found some links with interactive activities you can do. Good luck:

Remember that we did inverse crosswords in class. I have found a wonderful blog with crosswords which definitions are Relative Clauses. You can see how useful Relative Clauses are to DESCRIBE THINGS AND PEOPLE:
