What Exactly Is a Paragraph?
At its heart, a paragraph is a team of sentences working together to share .
Think of it as a house. The roof, the walls, and the foundation are all different parts, but they only work when they are joined together to protect the same single space. If you try to build a room meant for a kitchen and a garage all in one tiny square, things get messy fast!
For fifth graders, keeping a paragraph focused on just one main goal is the absolute secret to clear writing.
