Body Sentences-Sentences that fill out the topic sentence.
I start the day reading, grabbing the newspaper and checking out the sports, perusing the editorial page, and creeping on the advice column. Of course I read throughout the day as a teacher. Then when I get home, I often read to try a new recipe, fix an appliance, or just for fun.
