Paragraph Writing from Paragraph House Outline-How I Teach

Welcome to HIT---How I Teach #7, I’m excited to bring you some tips for young writers, specifically descriptive paragraph writing for elementary students. I use one of my month-long downloadable books to teach a simple outlining approach called The Paragraph House Outline. Of course, any writing project needs to have all of the elements that a student needs to learn in order to complete that project, so I will walk you through the outline, writing, opening sentence, closing sentence, adverb addition, CAVES (five parts of a sentence), and simplified Checklist Challenge—all using a darling project of describing a character from the Beast’s castle.
