HI: As usual, I have a "take charge/control" approach to this kind of thing. First, I go into JAWS Keyboard Manager. I find the section that allows you to read things like "Prior" and "next", regarding "word", sentence" and "paragraph. I then set keystrokes for each. For example, in my case, I have ctrl+numpad Home", set for previous paragraph, ctrl+numpad up arrow for "current paragraph" and ctrl+numbad "page up" for "next paragraph". But, that's just how "I" like it. You can set it up as you wish - or, use the JAWS values, if there are any already set forth for these settings.
In your case, I would then move to the "select..,." part of this Keyboard Manager list, and set shift+ctrl+numpad "page up" for selecting the "next paragraph", assuming that I wish to select, and copy/cut and paste my "next paragraph, as my keystrokes to accomplish this. Then, I can move it anywhere, and make whatever editing changes I want to make to that paragraph - as it seems you wish to do. Frankly, I do not know the other suggestions that have been put forward to this question. However, as I mentioned, I like to "be in charge", and I prefer this kind of approach. And, once these Keyboard Manager setting changes have been made, I can do what I want, editing-wise, without worrying about what I may need to do with the word/sentence/paragraph after moving it. Good luck. You will find what works best for you, and that may not be the same as what works for me!

There is no announcement when you press CONTROL plus SHIFT plus 8. It just makes the change without telling you.
