Example Group Paragraph written in class (12m33s)

       Sometimes we just need to get away.  Paris would be the perfect choice for a weekend away in Europe.  There are many monuments, museums and restaurants to explore. First on most people’s list is the Eiffel Tower.  It is a Paris icon. An elevator will quickly take you to the top and you have the most amazing view of Paris.  Next we can spend days in the Louvre Museum. It is one of the most famous museums in the world. The Mona Lisa is a “no miss” and the Roman statues are also worth a visit.  Restaurants are everywhere. One special way to have lunch is on the Péniche. This is a riverboat that is also a restaurant and you can enjoy a leisurely ride along the Seine while experience French cuisine.  Paris is the city of love and I’m sure I will fall in love with Paris.   (148 words)
