When constructing an essay, you’ll recall that an essay should have a minimum of five paragraphs—one introduction paragraph, three body paragraphs, and on conclusion paragraph. In your introduction, you’ll have a hook/attention getter as well as your thesis. Your thesis basically tells your readers the topics of the body paragraphs in the order you will present them. For instance, if you decide to write about the game of chess you like playing, your thesis will mention three things you like playing about chess, and these three things will turn out to be the topics of your body paragraphs. Thus, if your thesis statement was “I like chess because it gets me off the computer, it challenges my mental capabilities, and because you can play yourself,” the first body paragraph would be about how chess gets you away from your computer. Your second body paragraph would be about how you find chess mentally stimulating/challenging. And, your third body paragraph would be about how chess can be played alone. After your body paragraphs, you would restate your thesis statement (but in different words) about why you like chess, and this would be a well-developed essay.
