E. Discussing or Explaining the What is a Paragraph?
Concept (Abstraction) A paragraph is a group of sentences organized to discuss a
topic. In fact, the main rule of paragraph writing is to focus
on one idea or topic. To be able to write an effective
paragraph, one must have the essential parts.
What are the Parts of a Paragraph?
There are three parts of a paragraph namely topic sentence,
supporting sentences, and concluding sentence. Each
serves a different function in the paragraph.
Topic Sentence
A topic sentence presents the topic of the paragraph. It
will serve as a guide for the writer to keep his or her
writing under control. This is why, a topic sentence is
called the "controlling idea" of a paragraph.
Supporting Sentences
The Supporting sentences serve as the body of your
paragraph. This is where you elaborate your topic by
including specific details or evidences. All of the sentences
in the body must relate to the topic sentence.
Concluding Sentence
A concluding sentence restates what the topic of the
paragraph is all about. It comes after all the details have
been included in the body of the paragraph. The box below
contains the list of transitional devices used in concluding
sentences.
What are the Principles in Writing a Paragraph?
Unity- means that all sentences in the paragraph talk about
one central idea. This means that the writer will deal only
with one topic.
Coherence- refers to the connection of ideas in the
paragraph in general. The idea in the topic sentence, as
well as in the supporting sentences and concluding
sentence, is connected to each other through the use of
transitional devices.

describes, elaborates, explains, and supports its topic
sentence. A paragraph is considered adequately developed
