Week 1: Paragraph Structure

Welcome to Week 1 of your writing Course! Our lessons for this week include 4 video presentations followed by a practice video. In our first lesson, we will cover the basics of paragraph structure. We will briefly define and explain topic sentences, supporting ideas, and concluding statements — the three parts of the paragraph. In our second week, we will present some common types of paragraphs and essays as well as how to approach them, followed by techniques on how to generate ideas, in week 3. Our final video of the first week will give you some tips on how to research information for your writing online and finally we will include a practice video with examples of what we talked about in our lessons.
