We are going to look at what is a Paragraph<\/strong>, and use our hamburger paragraph<\/strong> to help us remember all the different parts of a paragraph in this video.
\nclick here for the video<\/a><\/p>\n

A paragraph<\/strong> is made up of a group of sentences.\u00a0 A paragraph<\/strong> focuses on one topic.<\/p>\n

Paragraph<\/strong> = topic sentence<\/span> \u00a0\u00a0 + \u00a0 supporting sentences<\/span> \u00a0\u00a0 + \u00a0\u00a0 <\/em>concluding sentence<\/em> <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The topic sentence<\/span> <\/em><\/strong>is the first sentence, and it introduces the main topic of your paragraph. (It is the bun on the top of your hamburger.)
\nexample: There are many reasons to be thankful at this time!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The supporting sentences<\/span><\/strong><\/em> are the middle sentences of your paragraph, and they are sentences that tell us more details and information about your topic. (These middle supporting sentences make up all the ingredients inside your hamburger.)
\nexample: First of all, I am thankful that my whole family is safe and healthy together at home.\u00a0 Also, I am thankful that we have more “family time” together at home, so we can enjoy meals together, play board games and go for walks in our neighbourhood.\u00a0 Lastly, I am very thankful for all the dedicated doctors, nurses and essential service workers who work so hard everyday to keep us all healthy, safe and strong.<\/strong> \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The concluding sentence<\/span><\/strong><\/em> is the last sentence of your paragraph, and it summarizes or retells what your paragraph was about. (This last sentence is the same as the bun on the bottom of the hamburger.)
\nexample:\u00a0 I feel very lucky and grateful at this time!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You can try this now!<\/span><\/strong><\/em> – Write a paragraph with this topic: “What I Am Thankful For!<\/em>“<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n– remember to write full sentences for your topic sentence, supporting sentences and concluding sentence
\n– look at your brainstorm and make sure you use all your ideas on your 4-square
