What is a Paragraph?

A paragraph is a group of sentences about one main idea.
It usually has 4 to 6 sentences.
All the sentences are connected and talk about the same topic.
πŸ“ Example: A paragraph about my favorite animal 🐢 (not about animals, sports and food all together!)

Parts of a Paragraph

Topic Sentence
πŸ‘‰ Tells the main idea of the paragraph.

Supporting Sentences
πŸ‘‰ Give more information or examples.

Closing Sentence
πŸ‘‰ Finishes the paragraph. It can say your opinion or repeat the idea.
