1. The Topic Sentence
   A paragraph is a number of sentences written about the same topic. The main idea of the paragraph is usually given in the first sentence—which is called the topic sentence.

The topic sentence introduces what the paragraph is talking about and limits the information that can be given in the other sentences.

The other sentences add information to the topic and are called supporting sentences.

A topic sentence should talk about the topic, not about what you intend or are planning to write. Students often mistakenly begin a paragraph with sentences such as: I want to tell you about . . . or I’m going to write about . . .or This paragraph is about . . . or Let me tell you about . . .. These are not proper topic sentences as they do not really introduce the topic. They introduce your intent or your writing plan, but not your topic.

Begin a paragraph with a topic sentence like this:

My day   was wonderful / a giant mess/a big problem/a lot of fun

Today was easier than usual / terrific! / a lot of hard work
