HTML - Paragraph

The HTML tag is used to define a paragraph on a web page. It represents a block of text or content that forms a logical unit. Here's a breakdown of the tag:

The tag stands for "paragraph."

It is used to group together a series of sentences or text that belong together and form a coherent unit.

<p>This is a paragraph of text.</p>

The tag is a block-level element, which means it creates a line break before and after the content within it. This makes each paragraph visually distinct from other elements on the page.

Here's an example that demonstrates the usage of the tag:

<p>This is the first paragraph.</p>
<p>This is the second paragraph.</p>
<p>This is the third paragraph.</p>

In the example above, we have three separate paragraphs. Each paragraph is contained within its own tags. This allows the browser to render each paragraph as a separate block of text.

The tag can be further styled or modified using CSS properties such as font size, color, alignment, and more. However, for grade 5 students, it's more important to understand the purpose and structure of the tag as a way to organize and present text content on a web page.
