Paragraph
A group of sentences forms a paragraph. A paragraph works around a common idea. If you want to write for another
idea, create a new paragraph. For example, if you're writing about colleges, the first paragraph may contain sentences
referring to names, locations, and other details about different colleges in a particular city. In the next paragraph, you
can describe what you like about a particular college.
Construction of a Paragraph
A paragraph is composed of three parts:
• Topic sentence: The paragraph’s first phrase, which establishes the primary concept
• Development and assistance: Sentences that expand on the fundamental topic
• Conclusion: The paragraph's final sentence
To help you write a simple paragraph, here are a few tips:
• Select a primary point for the paragraph.
• Make a topic sentence.
• Explain the central idea
• Give examples
• Describe the examples
• Finish the paragraph.
