SENTENCE COMBINATION, Oct. 29th, 2009

Learning to combine ideas into more complex sentences is an important skill in writing. There are many ways to do this--many possible bonus points! Try to combine the following three sentences.

Sentence 1: Halloween is a wonderful chance for children to dress up and indulge their love of candies.
Sentence 2: It is always interesting to see the many varied costumes that the children wear for Halloween.
Sentence 3: In Canada, however, they costumes usually have to fit over a snow suit.
