This is for help planning an essay outline. First you decide what your intro/grabber is. This part is meant to grab a reader's attention. The you give back ground info, which just is extra info that you give that shows your reasoning without completely explaining in depth. Then you write your thesis, which is your claim followed by a list of reasons (for example: Ceasar was a victim because he was stabbed by his friends, betrayed by his best friend, and didn't realize he was being a tyrant.) Then the rest is body paragraphs. so you give the thesis/topic sentence for that particular paragraph and the state facts/examples that back up your claim. This is repeated for each body paragraph. Then for the conclusion you simply summarize everything you said in the body paragraph and rewrite your thesis in a different way. This is all meant to be written in a listing way-like with bullet points or some other form of separation- Not as a full out essay.
