In this class, students will learn what a paragraph is and what it should include, the types of paragraph writing that we can do, and using color-coded shapes, identity the parts that make up a proper paragraph. For this lesson, students will be led through a Power Point to discuss the parts of a paragraph and the color-coded shapes we will use. We will then get into some practice using the the color-coded shapes to create a quick plan before completing our writing. Students will have an opportunity to practice the learned skill and create their own paragraph that includes the key parts of a paragraph.
Learning Goals
Students will be able to write a paragraph that includes a topic sentence, main details, and supporting details.

Supply List
The Power Point needed for this lesson will be screen shared with students. I will provide the note sheet and practice sheets used for this lesson to be printed so students can have a copy to write on as we do the work. Students should also have a black, purple, red, and green colored writing tool such as a pen, colored pencil, etc. This will help them see the different parts of their paragraph.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! I'm Jessica (Jessi) Traina. I am a graduate of Western Governor's University with a Bachelor's in elementary education (K-6). I have been working in the public school system (elementary) for 10 years now.
I started as an ELL or bilingual para working with fourth grade Spanish speaking students. I then worked with Kindergarten for a few years while earning my degree. Finally, after finishing school I had the privilege of being hired on by the principal and have been working at the same school for 9 years. I have taught 3rd grade and have been teaching 4th grade for the last five years, teaching all subject areas. I love language arts and getting students to get excited about reading and teach them how fun writing can be! Like many educators, I have a true passion for teaching! I love working with children and inspiring them to become the best version of themselves. I believe in creating a learning environment that is fun and safe for all learners and creating an environment where students feel they are truly part of a classroom family where they are supported, uplifted, and encouraged, not just by me but by their peers as well.
I'm a cat lover and love being out in the sun. I enjoy spending time with my son and husband taking walks, enjoying the pool, and having fun in our beautiful Florida beaches. We love to take road trips and enjoy "food adventures" trying out new places every month.
I'm excited to be here and look forward to seeing your child in the classroom!
