what are topic, supporting, and concluding sentences?
Topic Sentence Each paragraph should begin with a sentence that introduces the reader to your topic. This is called the topic sentence. Supporting Sentences After the topic sentence there should be at least three supporting sentences. Supporting sentences are details that explain the subject that you introduced in your topic sentence. Concluding Sentence Finally, your paragraph should end with a concluding sentence. This sentence ends the paragraph by giving a brief summary of what you just wrote about. Also, the concluding sentence can help to introduce the next paragraph.
