Answer:

So I understand correctly, you are trying to write a transition sentence for your 1st body paragraph? You want to give a snapshot of what your paragraph is going to be about. You read that sentence and you automatically know what the paragraph is about. Think of the transition sentence as a hook to start off your paragraph. For example, say you are writing about school uniforms. You might start off your first paragraph like, Without a doubt school uniforms would decrease bullying. Then your second paragraph you might use, Not only would bullying decrease, but time spent in the morning getting ready would drop.

Some other transitions would be furthermore, along with, In contrast, etc.
