Complete Record: Discusses the technique of writing coherent paragraphs. Uses examples of a class report on one pupil’s prize-winning DOG to compare the logical order of ideas in a good paragraph to the logical arrangement of a picture story sequence. Emphasizes the need for beginning a paragraph with a topic sentence, followed by a sequence of supporting ideas, and ending with a good closing statement.
