Conjunctions (like and, but, or, and so) are used to put words and sentences together.

Use and to show that things go together.

Greg and Kate are playing a game.

We went to the zoo, and we saw some lions.

Use but to show that things are different or opposite.

I want to read, but my sister wants to play with me.

Use or to show a choice.

Do you want to go to the zoo or the park?

Aaron can ride his bike to school, or he can walk.

Use so to show that something happens because of something else.

Today is my birthday, so my mom baked a cake.

The best conjunction is so. Here, it connects two things to show that something happens because of something else.

My best friend moved away, so now I write letters to her.
