Paragraph Sandwich


As we discussed in class, here are the four essential ingredients of a delicious paragraph:
Topic Sentence (The Bread!)
Introduces the main idea of the paragraph.
Example (The Cheese!)
Illustrates that idea through facts, figures, stories, etc.
Discussion (The Meat!)
Explains the thinking behind the topic sentence and example. Gives the reader insight into the writer’s logic.
Analysis (The Bottom Slice Of bread!)
Connects the main idea of the paragraph back to the paper’s thesis.
