paragraph and excite the readers about the topic that is going to be
presented. The second paragraph will
include the materials needed. The third
paragraph will discuss the steps to completing the project and finally, write a
good conclusion to the whole project.

have your steps and paragraph checked over for proper spelling, capitalization,
indentation, and punctuation. Make sure
you check over the rubric and ask for help if you need it.
