PARAGRAPH
- It is a group of several connected sentences together by a single idea.
- It consists of a topic sentence that expresses the main thought of the paragraph. This main
thought should be discussed in a greater detail with supporting sentences.
- A paragraph should be unified, coherent, and well developed.

Parts of a Paragraph

1. A topic sentence is often the first sentence of a paragraph.

- it is a complete sentence that expresses the main idea of the paragraph.
- a topic sentence in the beginning of the paragraph gives readers an idea of what they will
read and helps them understand the paragraph more easily.

2. The body of the paragraph usually follows, containing supporting details.

Supporting details/sentences help explain,prove or enhance the topic sentence. The
supporting details explain, describe, or develop the main idea given in the topic sentence.

3. The concluding sentence is the last sentence in the paragraph. It reminds the reader of the main point
by restating it in different words. It usually summarizes or comments on the main idea. The length of the
paragraph depends on the complexity of the topic.
 How to compose a paragraph effectively?
A good paragraph possesses these elements:

1. UNITY - a paragraph should express a single thought that unifies all sentences it has.
2. COHERENCE - all sentences in a paragraph should clearly relate to one another systemically and
logically.
3. ADEQUATE DEVELOPMENT - the topic of the paragraph should be discussed entirely and
sufficiently by providing supporting details.

are several health hazards directly linked to smoking. The link between
smoking and cancer is well known. As well smoking is linked to other lung diseases like
emphysema and bronchitis. Smokers also have a greater risk of heart disease later in life. This
is evidenced in recent court cases in the USA where smokers have been awarded damages from
tobacco companies. Further, there is substantial research that even passive smoking can have
long term effects on health. Clearly smoking is a dangerous habit and should be avoided.
