Body Paragraph

[maturuvick_57943]

So my question is, When we write our body paragraphs this is the correct order?

1. Topic sentence
2. Use a document to elaborate your claim in the topic sentence
3. Write a HAPP
4. Then have a Evidence beyond document
   So is that is the correct order?
   Also if we have 2 happ’s in each paragraph so in total of 4 will we be getting extra points?

Hello! You are kind of on the right track. So this is what I would recommend:

• Topic sentence that references back to thesis and prompt
• Discuss your grouped docs (I would expect you to have your docs in a category of sorts that supports this first argument). Discuss the docs separately but show how they relate to your topic idea.
  If you can - “use” the docs here too, don’t just describe.
• HIPP or Happ a doc if you can
• Finally, I’d try to link some outside evidence - remember outside evidence only works if you can connect it so this seems like the most direct route.

4 HAPPs won’t get you “extra” points, you can only get to the two points on the rubric

Hope this helps! Good luck on the test!
