This strategy is an easy-to-use scaffold approach to help students improve paragraph writing. It
includes prewriting ideas related to a topic, plus panning the point of view, verb tense, and sequence of ideas.
Students also learn how to write a variety of detail and clincher sentences as well as the types of paragraphs (narrative, expository, and compare/contrast).
The Paragraph Writing Strategy is a researched–based instructional strategy that can be used as part of the core curriculum, Tier 1, or as a strategy implemented alone or with other written language interventions at Tiers 2 and 3. The strategy can be taught to students in grades 4-12 by general/special education teachers and support staff.
*Previous training in the SIM Sentence Writing is recommended.
