Name, in the correct order, the three steps you should follow before you begin to write a paragraph. briefly explain each step.

First, it's good to have a topic for your paragraph - or a leading thought if your paragraph is a part of a bigger piece. This will ensure you stay on this topic and not digress. 

Second, it's good to have the content ready - so the arguments and the examples you want to give. 

Third, it's good to have a structure - this way your paragraph will be easy to read. 

- "in the declaration of independence, it is stated that all people have certain rights that can't be taken away. when the government fails to protect these rights, the people have no choice but to remove that government and replace it with a government that will do its job and protect the people's rights."
