Alex Ar [27]

One of the best ways to write and structure an outline which you are using is:

Write out the thesis/topic statement.
List out what you want to discuss.
Make your points.
Give supporting details.
Conclusion.

<h3>What is an Outline?</h3>

This refers to the organization of lists in a hierarchical format so that it can be easier to plan or view the things which needs to be done.

With this in mind, we can see that if you are writing a three body paragraph essay, it is important that you write the topic sentence which would help you use a theme and also the supporting details which would help you to validate your claim.
