Dominar la redacción de párrafos/Aprender a escribir párrafos sólidos/Práctica de párrafos

A well-written paragraph is the foundation of all great writing! This class goes beyond the basics, helping learners develop the skills to add meaningful details, vary sentence structure, and write cohesively in different styles. Whether for essays, creative writing, or test responses, the techniques taught in this class will build confidence and independence in young writers.
Each week, students will follow a structured approach to writing a strong paragraph. We will cover brainstorming, organizing, topic sentences, supporting details, and conclusions. Lessons cycle through narrative, descriptive, and persuasive writing every three weeks, with fresh topics and mini-lessons each time. Each class introduces a new skill, such as using sensory language, punctuation, or varying sentences. Students will begin to work on their paragraph during class and are encouraged to finish it after class.
This class is designed for intermediate writers looking to build confidence. Students should be able to write a paragraph on their own. If they are new to paragraph writing, students are encouraged to first take the class: Introduction to Paragraph Writing.
Students are encouraged to share their writing with me for feedback.
Start and stop at any time! Lessons do not have a strict beginning or endpoint
By the end of this class, learners will have stronger writing skills, a deeper understanding of paragraph structure, and the confidence to express themselves clearly in writing.
