When the in-coming tide threatens to leave her stranded, she suggests we move over to a large rock pool. “Let’s explore the rock pool for examples.” The rock pool hosts oysters, mussels, abalone, barnacles, scallops, clams, limpets, seaweed, rock crabs, spider crabs, hermit crabs, bullheads, starfish, jellyfish, sea anemones and sea urchins, all of which Marie incorporates into her sample sentences demonstrating the uses of co-ordinate conjunctions.Workbook exercises and answer key are provided with this lesson.
