Writing Skills- Paragraph Practice

Over the next few classes, we're going to take a step back, and review how to develop a strong paragraph. So what exactly does that mean? Well, here's the criteria we're going to work with:

1) A clear, concise topic sentence
2) Approximately three to four supporting sentences, that are clearly connected to the topic sentence
3) A closing sentence that completes the paragraph, and also introduces the next paragraph


We are going to practice by writing paragraphs with three different objectives: to persuade, to inform, and to tell a story.
