Paragraphing practice/review

Hello English 9,

Due today: your topic sentence for the paragraph you are creating on the topic of digital citizenship.
 In preparation we looked at this video: Please recall that the abbreviations used are for informal situations, but not for most class work.
Your topic sentence ought to include:
• a full sentence (subject and verb ...) that declares what your paragraph's message will be
• 2 or 3 supporting points to indicate the intention of the upcoming paragraph
These may (or may not) be drawn from the examples provided in the article, 'Be a Good Digital Citizen'.This is the link we looked at. Scroll down for the text.
Topic sentence example:
 My dog is the best dog ever; he is smart, loving and he even does chores!
Here we see a declaration that I will prove in my paragraph; "My dog is the best." The way I intend to prove it is to show you how 1. smart 2. loving and 3. chore-doing he is.
• I will give you credit for your best attempt at this sentence, provide feedback and then you will write the rest of the paragraph in class.

In class write of the full paragraph will occur Tuesday Sept. 25th.  You may use your brief outlines and I will return your topic sentences before you begin. This ought to take around 30 minutes.
