1. The topic sentence tells the reader the point of the paragraph. Think of it as a mini-thesis statement for your body paragraph. Your topic sentence/point of the paragraph is:

2. Explain your topic sentence a bit more here. Unpack that topic sentence by clarifying and spelling-out what the point of this paragraph is. 

3. Source information/evidence is needed to demonstrate that your point. What proof do you need to convince the reader to believe you and "buy-in"?

4. Provide commentary and analysis here. Explain the source information that you used and how the reader should or should not understand this. Don't rush this. EXPLAIN EVERYTHING.

5. Return to your thesis statement. Connect this body paragraph back to your thesis to remind the reader that this point helps to prove your thesis/solution.
