Writing Paragraphs

I thought my students new how to write complete sentences by the end of the year....WRONG! So we've been working on using complete sentences in a complete paragraphs. Most of them had to try this a few times until they got the idea of a paragraph. Anyways, I assigned them a topic for one of their paragraphs: "I enjoyed being in third grade." They had to add 4-5 more sentences explaining why they enjoyed being in third grade. One of my favorite sentences one of my students wrote said, "I liked math because it gave me a math brain." Wahoo!! My job is done!
