Paragraph Writing
How do we write?
What is a Paragraph?
A paragraph is a series of sentences that are
organized and coherent and are all related to a single
topic.
The Burger
Method
A topic sentence is the most
important sentence in a paragraph
and it helps to organize the
paragraph by summarizing the
information in the paragraph.
Every topic sentence has two parts:
a topic (what the paragraph is
about) and a controlling idea (the
direction the paragraph will take.
What is a topic sentence?
The Main Body
After writing the topic sentence, Unpack
the Topic Sentence and then provide
Evidence, The next step is to Analyze the
Evidence and Prove Your Objective.
A conclusion paragraph:
Summarize the whole paragraph and
evidence to further convince the
reader but never introduce a new
argument.
