Begin With A Clue

Worksheet Description

This worksheet provides guidance on writing concluding sentences for paragraphs. It lists several transition phrases such as “In conclusion,” “Therefore,” and “Finally,” which are commonly used to begin concluding sentences. The students are given four topic sentences on different subjects, ranging from health problems associated with lifestyle choices to the deceptive nature of social media accounts. Their task is to create a concluding sentence for each topic, starting with one of the provided cue words.

The worksheet is teaching students how to effectively end a paragraph with a sentence that encapsulates the central ideas presented. It underscores the importance of restating the topic, summarizing the main points, and providing a final thought or suggestion without introducing new information. By using the cue words, students learn how to clearly signal to readers that the paragraph is drawing to a close. This skill is crucial for writing coherent and logically structured essays and reports.
