Paragraph Writing
Introduction
Paragraph writing is a part of academic writing and creative writing at the same time. To write a good paragraph we need to follow some easy steps which I have listed one by one below:
- A paragraph must have a heading or title with an initial letter of each word in uppercase.
- A paragraph should not include personal notes and use of personal pronouns, exceptions are there.
- A paragraph should not have any grammatical errors.
- A paragraph should have unity of tense.
- A paragraph must not be excessively long or short, but appropriate.
- A paragraph must have a proper beginning with introduction, a body and a conclusion.
- A paragraph ideally is in third person narrative without having a mixed narrative style and multiple speakers, use of excessive direct speeches must be less.
Examples of Some Good Paragraphs:
Your Hobby
My hobby is drawing, I love to draw. When I was a little kid, I loved playing with color pencils and oil pastels. Now I have a drawing teacher and he teaches me how to draw better. I hope that I will be an artist in the future. My parents are really supportive and they always inspire me to draw. My father buys me drawing pencils and paper. In my free time, I don’t watch TV, I draw. I think that helps me to become creative. Drawing is my passion. The most beautiful scene for me is the sunset on the beach. Apart from drawing I like to dance, I have learnt dancing in a dance academy for two years and performed in a number of programs. I wish to continue drawing and dancing forever.
My Favourite Season
Among the four major seasons in India, I love spring the most. March, April, and May are the three main months for this season. There are a few reasons why I love this season. Trees get new leaves at this time. Flowers start to grow and become prettier. In this season, there is a little celebration in my village. I love to see the color of flowers and leaves at this time. We can find everything looking really fresh and beautiful in this season because they get a new look. Spring is a season of live. In this season different fruits and flowers beautify my little garden, small bards sing in the trees. I wish spring stays forever in the calendar.
National Flag
The Nation flag of India was adopted on July 22, 1947, by the Constituent Assembly. It is the pride of the country and represents its sovereignty. Pingali Venkayya proposed and designed the National Flag of our country. The National Flag is rectangular, and the length and breadth dimensions are in a 3:2 ratio. Our National Flag is known as the ‘Tiranga’ Flag and comprises three distinct colors- Saffron, White, and Green. At the center of the Flag, there is an Ashoka chakra known as the ‘Dharma Chakra’, which consists of 24 equally divided spokes and is called the wheel of duty. The Flag’s saffron color symbolizes the courage and sacrifice of all the brave souls during the Indian Freedom Movement. The white color symbolizes peace and truth, and the green color symbolizes the fertility and growth of the country. The National Flag of India reminds each individual of the sacrifices made by all the freedom fighters. It symbolizes honor and unity, and every Indian citizen has to sustain its pride and glory by all means. Every citizen of India should respect their National Flag.
A Fair
On The Occasion Of The Pahela Baishaki, a fire is held under an age-old banyan tree situated in our village. Every year at this time this fair is organised, hundreds of people from nearby and distant villages visit the fair. I feel tempted to visit the fair. I go to the fair with some of my friend Pritam and Arnab. The whole place is full of joy and busy activities—there are shops of different types. There are wooden toys, clay dolls, balloons, food items, etc., in the shops. There is also a merry-go-round, rope dancing, etc. I buy many things for myself and my family. I buy candy, dolls, flowers, vases from the fair. We enjoy a ride on the toy cars and ate some delicious foods. It becomes almost a hectic day for me. I return home in the evening with sweets for my brothers and sisters.
The Gifts of Science
Science keeps on making our life simpler, more beneficial and more secure. Science is prompting symptoms like an Earth-wide temperature boost, contamination, concoction weapons and so forth. Sadly, science can’t forestall these reactions. In future, science will propel more and improve the nature of our life from every little angle. Clinical science will make our life expectancy longer and more advantageous. Utilization of vitality and assets will turn out to be increasingly proficient. We will have the option to eat top-notch food and drink great water. More occupations and callings may advance. On occasion, one marvels if science will make our life increasingly safe, easy, comfortable and smooth. Rural people are also benefited by science. Formerly village people used to move in bullock carts from place to place. But now motor vehicles are available even in distant villages. In the field of education its contribution is enormous. Thousands of books, magazines, and newspapers are easily available every day. The gifts of science are too numerous to mention.

I go to the river to take bath. Our classes begin at 11 am. I reach school at least 10 minutes earlier and take my set in the front row. As soon the bell rings for the recess period, we rush out of our Rooms like birds out of cage. Returning home in the afternoon, I take my lunch and go to the field to play cricket and football.
