A run-on sentence is a sentence that has more than one complete thought and incorrect punctuation (too many commas). 
E.g.: The night was cold, my hands were freezing.
-> The night was cold. My hands were freezing.
Run-on Sentences ('Comma Splice')
Rules: 
- Separate complete thoughts (pieces of information) with a period.
-Replace one (or more) comma's with a different punctuation mark. 
A good start is to replace the first comma in a sentence with a period.

Co-ordinating conjunctions are 7 words that help us connect two separate sentences or phrases.
I like cheese. I like cake. -> I like cheese and cake.
Co-ordinating Conjunctions
Rules: 
- Use the F.A.N.B.O.Y.S acronym to remember the 7 co-ordinating conjunctions: For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So.


Slide 16 - Tekstslide

Explanation of F.A.N.B.O.Y.S
For - another word for 'because'.
And - used to link different things or choices of equal importance.
Nor- indicates something that did not happen or is not true. Usually used after the word 'Neither' (both).
But - used to link two separate sentences where the second sentence explains the first.
Or - used to indicate an alternative (different) option. Also used to link two different choices. 
Yet - another word for 'but'. Used to express an outcome.
