Features

Step-by-step structure

Students build a paragraph in a clear order (reason, evidence, explanation, wrap-up) so their writing stays organized and on-topic.

Sentence starters that still feel “student”

Built-in starters support emerging writers without writing it for them—perfect for scaffolding independence.

One-click insert into the doc

When students are ready, the builder inserts the final paragraph directly into the current Google Doc.
