· Topic/Subject: a broad statement that is often explained in just a few words.
· Main idea: what is being said about a topic, often explained in a phrase or sentence.
· Topic sentence: the sentence in a paragraph that includes a statement of the main idea. Often, but not always, the topic sentence is the first sentence of a paragraph.

17. Process for finding main idea
1. Identify the details that support a topic sentence. Details=Sentences
2. Compare the details to determine what they have in common.
3. Use your own words to paraphrase what they have in common.
4. Typically the main idea is embedded in a topic sentence, but sometimes it is implied.
