Paragraph Practice Series helps
struggling learners and students with learning differences learn how to
write confidently step-by-step. This series gives students a foolproof
strategy for writing paragraphs with these reproducible binders. When
faced with a standardized-test prompt, journal topic, or essay question,
many students have difficulty deciding what to write, how much to write,
and what order to write in.
These two binders, Basic
Paragraph Practice and More
Basic Paragraph Practice, help students organize their
thoughts to transfer to paper in paragraph format.
Step-By-Step Process
Students use a graphic organizer to write a five-sentence paragraph,
including a topic sentence, three detail sentences, and a concluding
sentence. Each sentence goes in its own box so students can be sure to
include all the parts. After completing all of the steps, students
rewrite the five sentences in paragraph form.
Real-World Topics
Each reproducible binder presents captivating topics in 100
high-interest prompts, including the following:
• Who are your favorite musicians?
• What cities would you like to visit?
• What are your favorite things to wear?
• What foods would you be least likely to try?
• Think about your best friend. Why is he or she your best friend?

Multi-Paragraph Practice prepares
students to write multi-paragraph essays using the lessons and
reproducible graphic organizers in this binder. Similar in format to
Basic Paragraph Practice and More Basic Paragraph Practice,
Multi-Paragraph Practice features graphic organizers that provide a
step-by-step process of writing support.
The Process
Through a series of lessons, examples, and practice activities, students
learn to write the key parts of essays: introductory paragraphs, body
paragraphs, and concluding paragraphs. After they learn and practice the
three key parts of essays, students move on to practice writing three-,
four-, and five-paragraph essays. A graphic organizer gives students a
visual framework to support them as they organize ideas into separate
paragraphs and use elaboration strategies to develop and practice
writing multi-paragraph essays.
