How to Write the Body Paragraphs


The body (reason) paragraphs should follow this basic pattern:
  1. ​​Topic sentence (your opinion and one reason for believing that)
  2. Evidence to support your reason 
    [This comes from your notecards and needs a citation.]
  3. Elaboration (more details about that evidence) 
    [This comes from your own mind.]
  4. Evidence & citation
  5. Elaboration
Honors English 9 and English 10 need three pieces of evidence and elaboration.
