The document provides guidance on writing strong body paragraphs in academic essays. It recommends including a topic sentence at the beginning of the paragraph that relates to the thesis statement and previews the paragraph's main point. It also suggests explaining the topic sentence, integrating evidence such as quotes to support the topic sentence, unpacking the evidence, explaining how the evidence supports the overall argument, and ending with a concluding sentence that ties back to the thesis statement. Two sample body paragraphs are then provided to demonstrate how to structure a paragraph using this framework.
