Linking Sentences
We could argue that Canada is one of the best countries in the world to live in. Canada has a high standard of education. Students are taught by well-trained teachers and are encouraged to continue studying at university. As a result, Canada is a desirable place to live.
Linking Sentence
**If you don’t want to live in Canada, you could always come check it out and travel around this country.**
THEN The BODY Continues with the next BIG IDEA...
Canada is also a great place to travel to. There are many sites that are both natural and man-made. Some examples are Niagara Falls and the CN Tower. Of course, Canada also borders on some oceans. You could visit both coasts while travelling to Vancouver and then a city on the eastern side, maybe Halifax. I’ve been to Halifax, and they have some delicious fresh oysters from the ocean, if you like seafood. So, if you are adventurous, why not take a trip to Canada and explore some great sites.
Another Linking Sentence
**When the sites aren’t enough, you could then try out some great outdoor activities that this country has to offer, any time of year.**
THEN the BODY continues with the next BIG IDEA...
Whether it’s winter or summer, there’s lots you can do in the outdoors in Canada. (and continue writing the paragraph using some supporting details and a closing sentence)
Take a piece of the previous paragraph, then add a piece of the upcoming
paragraph, SMOOSH them together to create a linking sentence.

main idea paragraphs.
