PARAGRAPH STRUCTURE
PARAGRAPH STRUCTURE
•The organized way a paragraph is
built, consisting of a topic sentence,
supporting sentences, and a
concluding sentence to clearly
express one main idea.
Topic Sentence
•The topic sentence is usually the
first sentence of the paragraph. It
introduces the main idea or point
that the paragraph will discuss. It
sets the tone and direction for the
rest of the paragraph.
Supporting Sentences
•These sentences provide details,
examples, and explanations to
develop and support the main idea
stated in the topic sentence. Each
supporting sentence should be
directly related to the topic sentence,
helping to elaborate on the central
idea.
Concluding Sentence
•The concluding sentence, often the
last sentence of the paragraph,
summarizes the main idea or
provides a final thought. It can also
serve as a transition to the next
paragraph, helping to maintain the
flow of the essay.
