Paragraph Writing

Today we did a practice paragraph using the "stoplight" method.  It is really more of an upside down stoplight, however it really helps to organize our thoughts.

The green is the topic sentences and represents the main idea of the paragraph.  The yellow in the stoplight are the supporting details in a paragraph.  The red is the closing sentence and wraps up the paragraph.  This sentence can be similar to the green sentence.

We all wrote about Birthday parties!  Our topic sentence was: Birthday parties are fun!  Everyone worked hard to write supporting sentences and a closing sentence.  We put them on colored paper and the hung the finished product in the room.
