"BOGUS PARAGRAPH" Directions:
This paragraph needs EMERGENCY help! It's out of order, it does not contain everything it should, and it contains some things it should not have. Call upon our class discussion on paragraphs and any notes you have. Take this paragraph, rearrange it, take things out, add things in, make it your own, and make it good. (Hint: your first job is finding what the main idea SHOULD be.)

- Your final paragraph will be graded on:
- main idea is clearly stated
- contains major and minor supports
- paragraph flows; each sentence builds on the previous sentence
- has at least 5 sentences (probably should be more...)
- indentation
- conclusion
- correct spelling, grammar, & puncuation

Be sure to type your paragraph in a plain, 12 point font. Include your name, period, & date, and print out to turn in when you are finished.
