When you write, especially if you're trying to emphasize ideas and keep the order clear in the reader's mind, you want to use words such as "first," "second," "third," "then," "next," "lastly," "finally," etc. These are known as signal or transition words. If you were writing an essay with multiple paragraphs, you'd probably use one of these words near the beginning of each paragraph. If you're writing just a few sentences, it's possible that you may use one of those terms at the beginning of each sentence.
To celebrate the 4th of July, I'd like you to tell me three or four reasons why you enjoy this day or what you do to have fun! Remember to use some of those signal words in your writing!
Here's my answer!
First, I enjoy the 4th of July because it's a day off to spend with my husband. Secondly, it's a great time to have a cookout with friends. Last, but not least, the 4th of July is a time to reflect on our country and celebrate our freedom.

I like 4th of July for many reasons.
First, it's day off, and I get pay for the day, if I am working, I get pay time and half.
In the other hand, if I stay home, I cook outside, invite my friends to enjoy the day with me.
Finally in the evening, I drive to the beach with my husband to watching the Marine shooting the fire craker.

The 4th of July is a nice day for the family but the kids seem to enjoy it the most. The kids will all get their bags full of fire works and sort them out.
Next, they would put the small fireworks first to light than the big ones last.
After sorting the fireworks, the adults will place a firework in the road and yell,"kids stay back".
Finally, the kids all jump up and down with excitement to see the beautiful lights.
I like the 4th of July: First, it is a big day for the United States's stories. Second, I always enjoy day off cause I spend more time with my family. Finally, my mom always make my favorite dessert.
I like July 4th because it is a time of celebration for families and a time to honor our country. First, our family comes together for a meal and to set off our own fireworks. Then, we watch the real thing. Sometimes we go to a different place to watch them. We went to Gaitlinburg last year. We also honor our country by watching a parade or a 4th of July special.
