1. Use an adjectival clause in a complex sentence describing Hester Prynne. Hester Prynne, who is a sinful person, committed adultery.
2. Use an adverbial clause in a compound-complex sentence discussing Chillingworth's action at the end of The Scarlet Letter. Chillingworth, who was intensely frustrated, had to take a rest; he lied down.
3. Use a dependent clause of your choice in a sentence about Pearl playing in the graveyard. Identify which type of clause (adverbial or adjectival) you have used. When Pearl cheerfully played in the graveyard, no one saw her. (Adverbial)
4. In a complex sentence in which you describe your feelings about The Scarlet Letter, include two dependent clauses of your choice. Identify each dependent clause and tell which type it is. The Scarlet Letter, which cleverly portrays (adverb) the Puritan age and includes symbolic figures (adjective), was written by Nathaniel Hawthorne.
5. Write a compound-complex sentence explaining who you think is the most innocent character in The Scarlet Letter. Identify which type of dependent clause you used. Pearl, who is the innocent daughter (adjective) of Hester Prynne, doesn't recognize her mother when she isn't wearing the Scarlet Letter; she marries an aristocrat.

2. Use an adverbial clause in a compound-complex sentence discussing Chillingworth's action at the end of The Scarlet Letter. Chillingworth movement out of town, which he did in two weeks, caused great discussion; he was regretful.
4. In a complex sentence in which you describe your feelings about The Scarlet Letter, include two dependent clauses of your choice. Identify each dependent clause and tell which type it is. The Scarlet Letter, which is written by Nathaniel Hawthorne (adjectival), reminds us, whenever it mentions the sin Hester Prynne has committed (adverb), that the Puritan age was strict.
