Error Correction in PEEL Paragraphs

Many students struggle to write effective paragraphs. They often forget to include evidence to support their points, which makes their arguments weak. For example, a student might state, "Exercise is good" without explaining why. To improve, students should include specific evidence and clearly explain how it supports their main point. Also, connecting each paragraph with a concluding sentence helps to strengthen the overall argument.
