Almost all writing is divided into three sections: introduction, body, and conclusion. Students rarely have trouble writing the body of a piece. It is the heart of the composition and includes the major points. Introductions and conclusions are more challenging. The conclusion, for example, is usually a brief summation of the piece, with any final call to action or closing thoughts. Practicing conclusion writing helps students with this important composition skill.

This is a great exercise for students to learn about the different writing parts. Areas for an introduction, conclusion, and body are designated to make writing fun and easy. Print out this free worksheet for your students today!
