A paragraph is a group of sentences that describe the same idea or topic. a paragraph can be any length many sentences, a few sentences, or sometimes just one. it doesn't matter as long as all those sentences are organized around a single focus or idea stated in the topic sentence. there is one exception, sometimes a writer will break super-long paragraph in to two to give the reader a break.
1.)brainstorm
what your paragraph is going to be about.
2.)outline
ex:My Summer Vacation(title)
I preparing for the canoe trip(heading)
A.convincing my parents (subheading)
B.Gathering equipment
1 the canoe
2 the wetsuit (details)
3 special food

c. pysical training
II The Adventure
A. Arriving at base camp
B. our first time in the water
C. The crash

from there you should begin your paragrph

If your going to do multiple paragraphs you should have an intro, body, conclusion

when you are writing a paragraph, you must begin that paragraph with a topic sentence. Then you begin writing the main idea of you're topic sentence and other things that relate to you're topic by getting proper details about it.

To write a paragraph you have to start with a main topic, also known as your thesis. Your sentences in the paragraph have to all connect with each other. Overall everything has to come together as one piece. One other thing is that you have to make sure that the sentences make sence, and that they don't become run on sentences.

THE WAY U WRITE A WELL ORANIZED PARAGRAPH IS TH INDENT BEFORE U STRART THE PAGRAPH,AND THEN U STATE EITHER THE TOPIC SENTENCE OR THE MAIN IDEA. ALSO YOU HAVE TO ADD PERIODS TO THE END OF SENTENCES, AND COMA'S WHEN U ARE GOIN TO JUMP TO ANOTHE SUBJECT.

The way I would write a paragraph is by first knowing what I'm going to write. The process I use when I write a paragragh is finding out how to align it, then knowing what should be on top then the bottom. Basically making sure it makes sense. Making sure my readers will understand what I wrote. I have to make sure I know exactly what I'm writing aboout, wouldn't want to write something and not know what its about.
I know that if I was to write a paragraph I have to know exactly what im writing, and make sure what I'm writing is understandable enough for a 10 year old.

The first the thing you do is write an introduction to the paragraph. The you write three to four sentences supporting the intro duction.

The process to write a paragraph is to know what you are going to write about. In each paragraph the first sentence should be your main topic that will tell your reader's what your paragraphs are going to be about. Your aspects should be your supporting details that backs up your main topic of that paragraph. Inside every paragraph their should be a main topic and supporting details.

One way of writing a paragraph if you dont have a clue how to start is to refersive the question.Than you give a theise statement about your topic and then you give brief examples about your topic also.the aspect of a paragraph can be similatiers, differences,postive or negative things base on your topic.What should know from a paragraph is who, what, where, and why, the paragraph is begin writen.

I think that in order to write a good paragraph the writer needs to first organize a bunch of little thoughts and format it into one big thought. The format I follow is that I brainstorm before anything so I can know what I'm going to write in a orderly fasion. I also want to make sure I have a topic sentece so the reader knows what I'm goin to discuss in my paragraph or essay. Then after I process my thoughts while i brainstorm, I finally write my paragraph which should be at least 4 to 5 paragraphs long.

A group of organized words that make a complete thought. A paragraph must give the person that's reading an understanding or proving the point the writer is trying to make. A paragraph must have a topic sentence and the right grammer an introduction and conclusion.

To write a paragraph I must brainstorm to make an outline. Write a topic sentence with at least 3-5 supporting detail sentences that when I write my body paragraphs they will be chronologically in the same order as the body paragraphs. Then I make my concluding sentence.

to write a well formed paragragh, i must start with a opening statement. (topic sentence-intro). Then after I have written my thesis statement, i gather important details to support it. Then i finally conclude the paragraph .

A paragraph consists of about 5 sentences that back up the topic of your paragraph. It contains facts and opinions on what is being written. The last step in concluding your paragraph is to write a closing sentence.

When I write a paragraph, I star by writing topic sentences, then I write a few supporting sentences, and at the end I write a small conclution.

To write a paragraph I like to brainstorm first. On a peice of paper I write down what my topic is going to be. I also write details to support that topic. After brainstorming i would organize what i wrote in the order of which I would like to present it in writing.I would then be able to write 4-7 sentences about what I've brainstormed to form a paragraph

When I write a paragraph first thing I need to do is create my topic sentence. Then from there I proceed on to developing my surporting details. I make sure all of my sentences surport my topic sentence. Then from there I end the paragragh by putting together my conclusion.

In order of writing a good paragraph I start with an introduction. The introduction is going to introduc the topic that I'm going to talk about.Then I write the topic sentence, the topic sentece helps the reader and I understaned the main idea of what I'm going to talk about. Then I write three or four sentences explaining my topic.Then I write the conclusion of my paragraph.

I think a paragraph should start by brainstorming.I put and collect my thoughts together.At the time alot of ideas might be running threw my mind,so i jot them down.After ive collected all my inner thoughts ,I make an outline by organizing my thoughts.A topic sentence is my next step.Then i put everything in chronological order,proper grammar is very important.I like to write from 5 up to 7 sentences.I like to set a sort of tone , so readers may be intrigued.After Ive done all this i come to a closeing ,my conclusion.Thats how u wrtie an essay.

When I write a paragraph (or an essay/report), I first brainstorm the topic and do a little research. These allow me to write about the topic clearly, and make my writing understandable, interesting and entertaining. I then begin writing. Introducing the topic of the in the introduction sentence, which contains facts, opinions and (if any) personal experiences. Following that, I include 2 or 3 additional sentences that support my topic. Afterwards, I close the paragraph by either begining to touch on he topic of the next paragraph or summarizing the entire essay. Thats how I write my paragraphs.

Well usaully I use the basic steps for writing a paragraph. Other than indenting and brainstorming which are really great. I like to keep it simple with my essays I use tactics like the five W's, Who Where When What Why? Compare and contrast, I even write about the causes and effects
of the topic.

Depending on what your writing about, the paragraph consists on one of the topics of the whole theme, and has 5 or more sentences that describe... and thats my definition for paragraph

Anonymous said...

A paragraph consists of a topic, reasonings and your ending. First you tell in your topic sentence why you are writing. Second you have three main details to what you are writing for and give examples. Finally you justify your organized thoughts into a conclusion and your done. How bad can a paragraph of seven or eight lines be? Make sure you read it twice and always make changes. Change is good!
