Simple sentences

A simple sentence has one subject + verb.

 It has no linking words:

Poppy sat on the beach.

She was eating a big ice cream. 

The boys splashed in the sea.

It was too cold to stay in long.

compound sentences

Compound sentences join two simple sentences with one of these linking words:

for, and, nor, but, or yet, so (Fanboys)

Poppy sat on the beach and she was eating a big ice cream. 

The boys splashed in the sea but it was too cold to stay in long. 

Complex sentences

A complex sentence uses a dependent clause to add extra detail. The two clauses are joined together with one of these linking words:

Because, although, after, when, before.

Poppy had been eating a big ice cream, before she sat on the beach.

The boys were splashing in the sea, although it was too cold to stay in long 

A good piece of writing has a mixture of simple, compound and complex sentences. 

They give readers a lot of variety, to keep them interested.
