Sentence to Paragraph is about creating descriptive well-written paragraphs.
In the first 6 lessons of Level 1 Sentence to Paragraph students start learning how to incorporate grammar into their sentences to create descriptive sentences. Their vocabulary increases as they find and use vivid words to write their descriptions that creatively express their thoughts.
In lessons 7 – 30 of Level 1 Sentence to Paragraph students learn how to organize their thoughts into a paragraph using the writing process: brainstorm, outline, rough draft, edit, and final copy. Students study and practice the writing process while sentence writing skills continue to be developed and incorporated into their paragraph writing.
