If I could be any superhero I would be...

A good paragraph should have a topic/title, a topic sentence/main idea with with three sentences that support the main idea.  A good paragraph should end with a concluding sentence or a clincher! 

After posting your own paragraph please evaluate at LEAST one other peer.  
What did they do well? WHY

    If I could be a super hero I would be invisible woman.
    First, I would be a member of the fantastic 4. If I was in the fantastic 4 I could help them if they get hurt. Second, I would have a lot of powers. If I had a lot of powers I could really help people in a good way. Thirdly, I would be invisible. I would like to be invisible because I could help people and then not get cot. As you can see Thats why I would like to be invisible woman.

  2. If I was a Super Hero


    Did you ever wonder what might happen if I, Erin, was a Super Hero? Well my super hero name would Super Mega Girl and I would be the greatest super hero that ever lived. First I would have the power to grow to the size of the Empire State building. So, as a last defense, I would grow and squish them. Also I would be able to fly. This way if my enemy tried to make a getaway in a helicopter I could fly after them, and have an amazing chase scene without running into every one and causing car crashes by running in the road. Last I would use my cape to turn invisible so I could sneak up on my enemy and use his own weapon against him. So this would be the events that would take place if I, Erin, were a super hero.

  3. If I Could Be A Super Hero

    Do you ever wonder what super hero you would be? Well I don’t I would be Under Dog for several reasons. First, I would be able to fly! That would be cool because I would be able to see the whole entire town! Next, it would be cool to have super speed! So when I need to get to school I wouldn’t be late and I would be the best at tag. Then, It would also be cool is my super hearing. That would be great because I could hear a crime going on! One last thing that would be cool is that I would have super strength. It would be useful when a building fell on me. As you can see being Under Dog would be amazing!

  4. I'm A Hero!

    If I was a super hero, I'd want to be Wolverine for many reasons. One reason I'd want to be Wolverine is because I would have claws that come out from between my knuckles. I could use them to climb up things and fight. Another reason I'd be Wolverine is because I could heal myself if I get hurt. Finally, I'd be Wolverine because I could save a lot of people. Less people would be robbed and murdered. As you can see, this is why I'd want to be Wolverine.

  5. If I Was A Super Hero .........



    If I was any super hero in the world I would be captain america for many reasons. First of all he has a shield that is like a weapon too. The shield is useful for protection and for any weapon. Next he is super fast and flexible. He can run almost as fast as a car! He can outrun anyone. Lastly he is the color of the U.S.A flag. I think he looks really cool in his red white and blue uniform. All in all if I was any super hero I would be Captain America. It would be fun and challenging.

  6. One of the cool super heros
    Do you ever wonder what it would be like if you were a super hero? Well if I was a super hero I would be Spider Man. It would be cool. One reason it would be cool is you could shoot web out your wrist. I could use the web to get to places faster and web bad guys and. A second reason it would be cool is I wold have spider sense. The spider sense would warn me if a bad guy is coming. A third reason it would be cool is I could climb on walls. I could hide from bad guys by hanging on the wall or surprise attack the them or chase them. A fourth reason it would be cool is I would have super strength. I could beat up any body or a bad guy.As you can see, it would be cool to be Spider Man.

  9. My Own Super Hero

    Don’t you think that it would be awesome if you could be any super hero you wanted to be. I’m going to tell you about what super hero I would want to be my own super hero with my own super powers. First, One of my super powers would be to have the ‘ability’ to fly. I would want to fly because that way I could fly over the town and see if people need help or not and if they do I can help them. Secondly I would want to be able to have super strength. That way I could pick up anything that is in my way
    and move it. Lastly, I would also want to have the ‘ability’ to read peoples mind. That way I can tell if someone is mad, sad, happy and what there thinking. As you can see that is what I would do if I was my own super hero.

  13. I am responding to Becca's entry. I think that you did a nice job following the paragraph diagram format and using transitions! I think that you can improve your paragraph by adding vivid language and detail. How can you help the reader create a mind movie of your superhero? Also, describe the Fantastic 4. How would you help them: be specific! The more specific you are the better your writing will become:)

  15. I am responding to Erin's post. I love your paragraph for many reasons, but what stands out the most is your "voice." Your paragraph opens with a great hook and your use of detail makes me want to read more! I think an area you can improve is GUMS...please print a copy of your paragraph and let's sit down and proof read it together.

    I think Nikita did a good job with her transitions, but she made some of the sentences too long. She did a good job by hooking the reader and her details in her sentences.

  20. The awesomeness super power would be x-ray vision. The first reason that would be cool is that it would help fix things. Say a car broke down, I would just turn on my x-ray vision and BAM I would know the problem. The second reason x-ray vision would be cool is that I could crack the code on safes. I could just look in the safe, see if there was anything I want, and then just look at the dial to see the pins and then just be able to tell what the code is. The last reason that having x-ray vision would be cool is that I could look for buried treasure. I could just look down and see if there was any thing under the ground.

  23. I am responding to Jalyn's post. Great job! You clearly have paragraph writing down! I like how you opened with a clincher and used 4 essential details to earn exceeds standard on your paragraph writing rubric. An area to improve is your voice...an example of what I mean by this can be seen when looking at Erin's entry. See me if you have questions.

  41. If I Could Be A Super Hero

    Do you ever wonder what super hero you would be? Well I don’t I would be Under Dog for several reasons. First, I would be able to fly as high as the C.N. Tower! That would be cool because I would be able to see the whole entire town! Next, it would be cool if I, Jalyn Collins had super speed! So when I need to get to school I wouldn’t be late, I would also be the best at tag and I could catch villains in a blink of an eye! Then, It would also be cool is I had super hearing. That would be great because I could hear a crime going on a mile away! One last thing that would be cool is that I would have super strength. It would be useful when a building fell on me when I was fighting a villain! As you can see being Under Dog would be amazing!

  48. I am responding to Zach G's entry. Your paragraph is great! Nice structure and essential and supporting sentences. I would like you to start using other transitions besides-The first reason...the second reason and so on...perhaps First, next, then, also, lastly...

  49. I am responding to Robert's entry. Nice job overall, you've got the format and transitions down! Your paragraph may have been easier to write if you listed a superhero you wanted to be and 3 powers you had...but what you did works. An area to improve is capitalizing all of the words in your title and centering your title on pages. Another area you can improve is by using "most awesome" instead of "awesomeness," I don't believe that is a word. Lastly, I would like you to use more vivid language...release your creative and descriptive powers on this paragraph!

  51. SUPER HERO

    If I was a super hero I would be superman .First, I could fly in the sky If I was in Nyc I could fly to new Mexico or any where. Next, I could have super strength I could fight crime by stoping gun fight and fist fights. Lastly, I could have x- ray vision and I could see stuff. As you can see, why I want to be a super hero.

  53. Super Hero

    If I was a super-hero I would be Silver Surfer. First, I could wield the power cosmic. (what ever that is) So that I could turn coal into diamonds. Could rearrange the atoms in the school and make it stick to the moon. (maybe) Secondly, I would be almost totally indestructible and could live without food, water, air, or sleep. I could shelf sustain my shelf by converting matter in to energy. I would be able to survive in vacuum environments such as outer space and hyper-space. I would be immune to extreme temperature and most radiation. So I could go live on an another planet. Lastly, I could fly at near limitless speeds on my board, entering hyper-space when I exceed light speed. So I could push the merry go round really fast! As you can see it would be awesome to be SilverSurfer

  54. Responding to Zack F.
    I think you did good with the fist fights reason. You can improve on gun fight needs to be plural, What would you look at/through with your x-ray vision? Why would you what to go to New Mexico? and why not stop wars instead? Also it was kind of short.

    ReplyDelete
  55. I am responding to Kyle's entry. I love your paragraph, it is creative and has great voice. You also did a nice job using transitions and you have a great paragraph structure. You can improve by correcting your GUMS errors. You may do this by printing a copy and meeting with a friend or proof read it with me (but please proof read it yourself first:). Another area you can improve is by adding a hook to your topic sentence. You can do this by asking a question.

    Overall, well done!
