A body of an essay is a place where you get to express all your topic-related ideas or arguments. In other words, each idea in your outline will become a paragraph in your essay. Each paragraph must have the following component parts:
- It starts with one of your main ideas (written in the outline).
- It contains several supporting points for this idea.
- Each supporting point must be explained and clarified in several sentences.
If each paragraph represents an argument or a persuasive content, it is recommended that you put the strongest one first, then you may put the weakest in the middle and end up your body with the second strongest paragraph. Such is the best way to retain attention of a reader.
