Paragraphs Made Simple as "123...23...23...4!"

Today we introduced a simple to use paragraph writing structure that will be a regularly used, and referred to, strategy in our class.  It is called a "1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 3, 4 Paragraph."  If you are familiar with "Step Up to Writing," and its various color coding, you will find this paragraph structure similar.  The main difference, at least what we think, is that it allows for more depth and growth as a writer.
