Lesson 5.2: Writing a "How To" Paragraph

 A How-to Paragraph tells how to do something: how to use a telephone, how to fix a flat tire on a bike, even how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. When you write a How-to Paragraph, make your instructions clear and simple. Are you ready to write your own How-to Paragraph? Here's what you need to do:

1. Choose a topic for your parapgraph and write a title

2. Fill in the graphic organizer "Step-by-Step Chart"

3. Write down transition words on your graphic organizer that can help you in your paragraphs. (i.e. First, second, then, next, finally)

4. Write your rough draft below.
