This handout and activity explains working and expanded outlines and how students can use working outlines to construct topic sentences. I have included two worksheets--one for constructing a working outline and one for creating topic sentences. I have been found this process of using outlines to create topic sentences to be very helpful, especially for my more reluctant writers. It's a very effective way to help writers stay on track and eliminate writer's block.
Excellent resource for the class! I like your style and I'm interested in your products and store! I'm your new follower! You can visit my store and leave a comment if you wish! hugs from Hernan!
Detailed step by step to help students construct paragraphs with strong topic sentences and systematic flow. Every teacher should have a copy of this (within arm's reach) when they begin to teach that "dreaded desk throwing subject" (in my room) aka WRITING!!! Thanks for creating this. Peg :8)
