Element that make for great
paragraps
Unity
Unity means that each paragraph
has only one main idea (expressed in
the topic sentences) and that all
other sentences and details in that
paragraph revolve around that main
idea.
Paragraph unity is the most important characteristic
of a good paragraph. It defines that all sentences in a
paragraph should speak about one single idea or one
main subject. That is, the topic sentence, the
supporting details, and the concluding sentence
should focus on only one idea.
Why Unity is important in
Paragraph?
Unity is important because it aids the reader in
following along with the writer's ideas. The reader can
expect that a given paragraph will deal only with one
main topic; when a new paragraph begins, this signals
that the writer is moving on to a new topic.

paragraphs when writing
essays. Be sure your
paragraphs are related, that
they fit together and clarify
your essay's idea.​

Example of unity
○
"Sunday is my favourite day,because I can watch football with mya
daddy.He spends the whole day watching football on TV with me,since he
doesn't have to work that day."
The second sentence elaborates on the main topic.This is unified start.

The start of this paragraph is incorect:
"Sunday is my favourite day,becauseI can watch
football with ny daddy.There are other sports on other
day watch on TV.
The scond sentence detours from the main topic:how
watching football with daddy makes Sunday your
favourite day.
