Goal: Help writers organise ideas clearly by using one idea per sentence and presenting them in a logical order.
To make your writing easy to read, it’s important to organize your ideas clearly. A good rule is: one idea per sentence.
When a sentence includes too many ideas, it becomes long, confusing, and hard to follow. For example:
“You must fill out the form, bring your ID, and go to the front desk before 10 am because the office closes early on Fridays.”
That’s too much at once.
Instead, break it into shorter sentences:
“Fill out the form. Bring your ID. Go to the front desk before 10 am. The office closes early on Fridays.”
This way, each step is easy to see and understand.
Also, put your ideas in a logical order. Start with the most important point. Then explain what to do, when, and why.
Think of your writing like giving directions. If you explain one thing at a time, the reader won’t get lost.
Using one idea per sentence helps:
- Make your text clearer
- Reduce misunderstandings
- Support readers with learning or language difficulties
A clear structure is kind to your reader and makes your message stronger.
