How to Write a Fourth Grade Essay

Karen hollowell.

If you are a fourth grade student, you are just beginning to learn about composing an essay. You began writing words and short sentences in kindergarten and first grade, and learned how to combine sentences into a paragraph in second and third grade. In fourth grade, you will learn how to combine paragraphs into a composition. A basic essay is made of five paragraphs that discuss one topic. These paragraphs introduce, support, and conclude your information, but should do so in a way that another reader can easily understand.

• Write the introduction
• Write the body of the essay
• Write the conclusion
• Proofread your essay

1 How To Write A Fourth Grade Essay

2 choose a topic.

Choose a topic. Sometimes the teacher may give you a list of topics, or you may have to brainstorm ideas. When deciding on a topic, focus on a specific subject. For example, if you want to write about dogs, choose one breed of dog or discuss characteristics of dogs that make them good pets.

3 Write the introduction

Write the introduction. This is the first paragraph of your essay. It will contain two or three sentences that tell the reader what you will be discussing in your composition. (Ref. 1.)

4 Write the body of the essay

Write the body of the essay. The body is usually three paragraphs that include details supporting your topic. For example, if your essay is about your favorite character in a novel, each paragraph should discuss one aspect of the character that relates to why he or she is your favorite.

5 Write the conclusion

Write the conclusion. The ending paragraph is similar to the introduction, but you do not use the same words. The conclusion needs to summarize the main point of your essay. For example, a conclusion for an essay about your favorite character in "Huckleberry Finn" might be written like this: "Jim is my favorite character in this novel because he remained brave even though he faced many dangers. He was also a good friend to Huck and helped him to see how bad slavery was."

6 Proofread your essay

Proofread your essay. Your teacher will probably guide you through this process until you know the procedure. Usually you will read your essay after you have written it to be sure the sentences support the topic. Delete or add details as necessary at this time. Then check for grammar mistakes like subject/verb agreement and spelling errors. It is also a good idea to get a classmate or someone at home to read your essay. They may be able to see things that you missed. They can also tell you if your writing was easy to understand.

My Favourite Sport Essay in English for Class 4 Students

Essay on my favourite sport for class 4 students.

The Essay on “ My Favourite Sport” has been prepared by our teachers at Vedantu to help kids with their essay about my best friend. These are drafted in a very easy and simple language for you to understand and remember it for a longer time. 

During our summer holidays, we even went to summer camp together to learn cricket and made a lot of memories. Moreover, we also invented new and our own handshake which only we both knew. This bonding between us has taught me that family doesn’t end with blood because my best friend is no less than my family. 

Last year, in summer we both went with his parents to watch a cricket match on the ground. From then, we both started liking it and decided to go and learn the sport together. Cricket is a very interesting sport and it has a lot of advantages to it. During the holidays we went to learn for 6 hours a day and learnt that we need to be good at both bowling and batting. Initially, we were taught how to hold the ball and catches. They focused more on running as Feilding is also necessary for Cricket. Our sports academy has many learners, we divide ourselves into a group and play matches every Sunday.

All these are making our bonding even more stronger. We always wait for holidays to play with each other and remain friends.

Introduction

Association football, further generally known as football or soccer, doesn't have a classical history. Notwithstanding any parallels to other ball games played around the world, FIFA has recognised that no literal connection exists with any game played in age outside Europe. 

The ultramodern rules of association football are grounded on the mid-19th century standards to standardise the extensively varying forms of football played in the public seminaries of England. 

The ultramodern game of association football began with mid-nineteenth century sweats between original football clubs to regularize the varying sets of rules, climaxing in the conformation of The Football Association in London, England in 1863.

The rules drafted by the association allowed clubs to play with each other without disagreement and specifically banned both running off the ball (except by goalkeepers) and hacking during open field play. 

After the fifth meeting of the association, a schism surfaced between association football and the rules played by the Rugby academy, latterly to be called rugby football. Football has been an Olympic sport ever since the alternate ultramodern Summer Olympic Games in 1900. 

FAQs on My Favourite Sport Essay in English for Class 4 Students

1. Why is Football a Famous Sport?

Football is the world’s most popular ball game in the figures of actors and observers. Simple in its top rules and essential outfit, the sport can be played nearly anywhere, from sanctioned football playing fields ( pitches) to gyms, thoroughfares, academy playgrounds, premises, or strands. Football’s board, the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), estimated that at the turn of the 21st century there were around about 250 million football players and over1.3 billion people “ interested” in football; in 2010 a combined TV followership of further than 26 billion watched football’s premier event, the quadrennial month-long World Cup tests. 

2. Explain the football crisis and how it happened?

The matter of professionalism outstretched an extremity in England in 1884, when the FA expelled two clubs for using professional players. Still, the payment of players had come so commonplacely that the FA had little option but to permit the practice a time later, despite original attempts to circumscribe professionalism to remitments for broken time. The consequence was that northern clubs, with their large supporter bases and capacity to attract better players, came to elevation. As the influence of working-class players rose in football, the upper classes took retreat in other sports, especially the justice and rugby union. Professionalism also sparked further modernization of the game through the establishment of the Football League, which allowed the commanding dozen brigades from the North and Midlands to contend totally against each other from 1888 onward. A lower, alternate division was introduced in 1893, and the total number of brigades increased to 28. The Irish and Scots established leagues in 1890. The Southern League began in 1894 but was engaged by the Football League in 1920. Yet football didn't become a major profit-making business during this period. Professional clubs came from limited liability companies primarily to secure land for gradational development of colosseum installations. Most clubs in England were possessed and controlled by businessmen but shareholders entered veritably low, if any, tips; their main price was an enhanced public status through running the original club. 

3. Describe the role of the International Organisation in Football?

By the first 20 th century, football had spread across Europe, but it had needed cross-border association. A result was planted in 1904 when representatives from the football associations of Belgium, Denmark, France, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland innovated the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA).

Nonetheless, in 1920 the British associations abnegated their FIFA enrollments after failing to convince other members that Germany, Austria, and Hungary should be expelled following World War I. The British associations replied to FIFA in 1924 but soon after claimed upon a veritably rigid description of dilettantism, especially for Olympic football.

4. Explain the regional tradition of Europe in Football?

Numerous Scottish professional players migrated south to join English clubs, introducing English players and cults to the more-advanced ball-playing chops and the benefits of cooperation and end. Till World War II, the British pursued to impact football’s development through daily club tenures overseas and the Continental accompanied careers of former players. Itinerant Scots were especially prominent in central Europe. The interwar Danubian academy of football surfaced from the coaching patrimonies and moxie of John Madden in Prague and Jimmy Hogan in Austria. 

5. What are the strategy and tactics of Football?

Use of the bases and (to a lower extent) the legs to control and pass the ball is football’s most introductory skill. Heading the ball is particularly prominent when entering long upstanding passes. Since the game’s origins, players have displayed their chops by going on “ single runs” or dribbling the ball past outsmarted opponents. But football is a platoon game grounded on passing between platoon members. The introductory playing styles and chops of individual players reflect their separate playing positions. Goalkeepers bear dexterity and height to reach and block the ball when opponents shoot at things. Central defenders need to challenge the direct attacking play of opponents; called upon to win tackles and to go the ball down from pitfall analogous as when defending corner kicks, they are generally big and strong. 

Fullbacks are generally lower but hastily, rates needed to match speedy sect-forwards. Midfield players ( also called halves or halfbacks) operate across the centre of the sector and should have a variety of rates important “ ball- winners” got to be “ good in the attack” in terms of winning or guarding the ball and energetic runners; creative “ playmakers” develop scoring chances through their gift at holding the ball and through the accurate end.

Wingers tend to have good speed, some dribbling chops, and the capability to make crossing passes that travel across the front of things and give scoring openings for forwards. One can be important in the air or small and penetrative with quick footwork; basically, they should be complete at scoring pretensions from any angle.

How to Write a Short Essay

Last Updated: January 17, 2024 Fact Checked

This article was co-authored by Christopher Taylor, PhD . Christopher Taylor is an Adjunct Assistant Professor of English at Austin Community College in Texas. He received his PhD in English Literature and Medieval Studies from the University of Texas at Austin in 2014. There are 12 references cited in this article, which can be found at the bottom of the page. This article has been fact-checked, ensuring the accuracy of any cited facts and confirming the authority of its sources. This article has been viewed 110,006 times.

Essay writing is a common assignment in high school or college courses, especially within the humanities. You’ll also be asked to write essays for college admissions and scholarships. In a short essay (250-500 words), you will need to provide an introduction with a thesis, a body, and a conclusion, as you would with a longer essay. Depending on the essay requirements, you may also need to do academic or online research to find sources to back up your claims.

Picking a Topic and Gathering Research

• If you have any questions about the topic, ask your instructor. If your essay doesn't respond to the prompt, you likely won't receive full credit.

• If you're writing an essay for an in-class test or for an application, tailor the essay to the given prompt and topic. Quickly brainstorm a few ideas; for example, think of positive things you can say about yourself for a college-entrance essay.
• For example, the topic “depression in American literature” is far too broad. Narrow down your topic to something like “Willie Loman’s depression in Death of a Salesman .”
• Or, you could write about a narrow topic like “the increase in the USA’s national debt in the 1950s” rather than a broad topic like “the American economy in the 20th century.”

• Depending on the field in which you’re writing the essay—e.g., hard sciences, sociology, humanities, etc.—your instructor will direct you towards appropriate databases. For example, if you’re writing a high-school or college-level essay for your English class, visit online literary databases like JSTOR, LION, and the MLA Bibliography.
• If you're writing the essay for a college or graduate-school application, it's unlikely that you'll need to include any secondary sources.
• If you're writing a timed or in-class essay, you may not be able to find research articles. But, still do draw information from texts and sources you've studied both in and out of class, and build from points made in any provided reading passages.

• If you’re writing about current events or journalism topics, read articles from well-known news sites like CNN or the BBC.
• Avoid citing unreliable websites like blogs or any sites that have a clear bias about the topic they’re reporting on.

Composing the Essay

• If you write the essay without outlining, the essay will be poorly organized.

• This thesis statement is far too weak: “ Death of a Salesman shows the difficulty of living in America after WWII.”
• Instead, hone your thesis to something like: “Arthur Miller uses Death of a Salesman to show that the American Dream is materialist and impractical.”

• So, avoid beginning the paragraph by writing something like, “Since the beginning of time, all people have been consumed with the desire for their father’s approval.”
• Instead, write something like, “In the play Death of a Salesman , Willie Loman’s sons compete for their father’s approval through various masculine displays."
• Then, you can say, "To examine this topic, I will perform a close reading of several key passages of the play and present analyses by noted Arthur Miller scholars."

• In a short essay, the conclusion should do nothing more than briefly restate your main claim and remind readers of the evidence you provided.

• So, take the example about Death of a Salesman . The first body paragraph could discuss the ways in which Willie’s sons try to impress him.
• The second body paragraph could dive into Willie’s hopelessness and despair, and the third paragraph could discuss how Miller uses his characters to show the flaws in their understanding of the American Dream.

• Always cite your sources so you avoid charges of plagiarism. Check with your instructor (or the essay prompt) and find out what citation style you should use.
• For example, if you’re summarizing the inflation of the American dollar during the 1930s, provide 2 or 3 years and inflation-rate percentages. Don’t provide a full-paragraph summary of the economic decline.
• If you're writing an in-class essay and don't have time to perform any research, you don't need to incorporate outside sources. But, it will impress your teacher if you quote from a reading passage or bring up pertinent knowledge you may have gained during the class.

• If no one agrees to read the essay, read over your own first draft and look for errors or spots where you could clarify your meaning. Reading the essay out loud often helps, as you’ll be able to hear sentences that aren’t quite coherent.
• This step does not apply to essays written during a timed or in-class exam, as you won't be able to ask peers to read your work.

• It’s always a mistake to submit an unrevised first draft, whether for a grade, for admissions, or for a scholarship essay.
• However, if you're writing an essay for a timed exam, it's okay if you don't have enough time to combine multiple drafts before the time runs out.

Condensing Your Essay

• So, if you’re writing about Death of a Salesman , an article about symbolism in Arthur Miller’s plays would be useful. But, an article about the average cost of Midwestern hotels in the 1940s would be irrelevant.
• If you’re writing a scholarship essay, double-check the instructions to clarify what types of sources you’re allowed to use.

• A common cliche you might find in an essay is a statement like, "I'm the hardest working student at my school."
• For example, this sentence is too verbose: “I have been a relentlessly stellar student throughout my entire high school career since I am a seriously dedicated reader and thoroughly apply myself to every assignment I receive in class.”
• Shortened, it could read: “I was a stellar student throughout my high school career since I was a dedicated reader and applied myself to every assignment I received.”

• Avoid writing something like, “Willie Loman can be seen as having achieved little through his life because he is not respected by his sons and is not valued by his co-workers.”
• Instead, write, “Arthur Miller shows readers that Willie’s life accomplishments have amounted to little. Willie’s sons do not look up to him, and his co-workers treat him without respect.”

• For example, if you’re trying to prove that WWII pulled the USA out of the Great Depression, focus strictly on an economic argument.
• Avoid bringing in other, less convincing topics. For example, don’t dedicate a paragraph to discussing how much it cost the USA to build fighter jets in 1944.
