Getting the main thought/idea- Topic

or Key Sentence
In reading, it is important to know how
to find the meaning of each paragraph or
its main thought. This main thought may
be directly stated or it could be implied
in the paragraph. When it is directly
stated the sentence that gives the main
thought is called the topic or key
sentence. It unlocks the meaning of the
paragraph for the reader.

Try the paragraph that follows:

There are many ways that vegetables

may be classified or grouped together.
They may be grouped by color, such as
red, yellow or green. They may be
classified according to the part of the
plant they represent, such as root, the
stem, or the leaf. They may be grouped
according to the season of the year
during which they’re planted. They may
be classified according to the way they
react to temperature-that is, their
reaction to heat and loud.

The first sentence gives you the

paragraph meaning or main thought.
It tells you that vegetables can be
grouped together in many ways. All the
other sentences help to explain this main
thought, even though each one is
different from the others.
