Write a Good Paragraph Step 1.jpg1Think of the main idea! If your paragraph is going to be about Billy wanting chocolate, you shouldn't be talking about flying pigs.Write a Good Paragraph Step 2.jpg2Add details! Maybe Billy trips over his couch before reaching the chocolate bar! Instead of writing "Billy trips over a couch and falls before reaching the chocolate bar," make the sentence more detailed. For example, "Billy trips over a blue, leather couch before reaching his crunchy chocolate bar." Not only does adding details make your paragraph longer, it will also give the reader(s) a better understanding of your idea.Write a Good Paragraph Step 3.jpg3Consider the Length! Paragraph length depends on the writer. Try not to go over twelve sentences, but exceed at least five. For example, would you prefer "Billy trips over a blue, leather couch before reaching his crunchy chocolate bar, and then gets up finally holding on to the delicious chocolate and then eating it," or, "Billy trips over a blue, leather couch before reaching his crunchy chocolate bar, and then gets up finally holding on to the delicious chocolate and then eating it. Billy can hear the crunch of the almonds in his head. After eating the whole thing, he wished he had bought some more." As you can see, only one - three more sentences can make the paragraph much more detailed and enjoyable.Write a Good Paragraph Step 4.jpg4Use correct Language/Grammar! Even if you do have a long, detailed paragraph, make sure to use capitalized letters for proper nouns and also at the beginning of a sentence. "billy was planning on going back to the store with his friend molly to get more chocolate bars." Do you see how annoying that was? "Billy was planning on going back to the store with his friend Molly to get more chocolate bars." This is definitely more attractive. Also, remember to use apostrophes. For example, "Billy already had twelve chocolate bars, so he DOESN'T want any more." The sentence should really say, "Billy already had twelve chocolate bars, so he DOESN'T want any more." Also, if it's a first person narrative, you should say ____ and I to being the sentence, or when being used as any subject of a sentence. [The next sentence is a first person narrative by Billy.] "Me and Molly...." This beginning of that sentence is incorrect. "Molly and I...." is the correct way.
