Paragraphs are the building blocks
of papers. Many students define
paragraphs in terms of length: a
paragraph is a group of at least
five sentences,

a paragraph is half a page long,
etc. In reality, though, the unity
and coherence of ideas among
sentences is what constitutes a
paragraph.

A paragraph is defined as “a group
of sentences or a single sentence
that forms a unit” (Lunsford and
Connors 116).

Length and appearance do not
determine whether a section in
a paper is a paragraph.

For instance, in some styles of
writing, particularly journalistic
styles, a paragraph can be just
one sentence long. Ultimately, a
paragraph is a sentence or group of
sentences that support one main idea.

In this handout, we will refer to this
as the “controlling idea,” because it
controls what happens in the rest
of the paragraph.
