What is Pharagraph?
A paragraph is a group of sentences that develops an idea. The first sentence of a paragraph should be indented. The sentences in the paragraph support and give examples of the main idea.
Pharagraph Structure
A paragraph should have a logical structure that is easy to put into an outline: I. Topic Sentence II. Supporting Detail Supporting III. Supporting Detail Sentences IV. Supporting Detail V. Concluding Sentence
Topic Sentence
A topic sentence is the sentence that tells the reader the main idea of the paragraph, and motivates the reader to want to read more. The topic sentence should contain only one main idea. It should be specific and detailed. The topic sentence is often found at the beginning of the paragraph, but it can be in other places, too. Our tips on writing a paragraph: Some journalists say that a good topic sentence is made of five words. Five words are quite enough to state a problem.
cant be an incomplete sentence implies a question that the paragraph is going to answer
cant be a fact
Topic Sentence
The topic is narrow topic cant be a question
The topic of topic sentence is not wide or too wide, and not too narrow. For the example, marriage and Fullerton College cant be the topic of topic sentence, because the topics is too wide that would be impossible to write about these topics in ONE paragraph. The topics must be narrowed, so...
Supporting Sentences
Every good paragraph should have 3 5
supporting ideas. Each supporting piece of evidence must be tied back explicitly to the thesis.
These sentences give evidence. Dont assume your reader understands your logic lay it out for him or her. Be brief and to the point a supporting argument shouldnt take more than 2 3 sentences to explain.
Supporting Sentences
General guidelines: > Share an idea with your reader; > The more sentences you add to a paragraph, the more your ideas are developed; > move from general, abstract ideas to specific qualification of an idea. Our tips on writing a paragraph: State facts and opinions separately. Examples :
Concluding Sentence
Your final sentence should tie up your arguments and link them back to your thesis. General guidlines: > Restate the main idea of your paragraph; > Use different words for restating. Our tips on writing a paragraph: Restating is not the only way to end a paragraph. Transition words and jokes are good instruments, too. Example :
Summary
In total, a good paragraph, therefore, should have a minimum of five sentences: topic sentence, three supporting details, and a conclusion.
