DBQ BODY PARAGRAPHS OUTLINE: Age of Exploration
Now that we have written our introductions, we can begin to outline the rest of our essay. Remember that each paragraph should look like a hamburger:
BUN = TOPIC SENTENCEMEAT, CHEESE, LETTUCE = SUPPORTING DETAILSBOTTOM BUM = CONCLUDING SENTENCE
TOPIC SENTENCE: Introduces the main idea of the paragraph, the topic that will be discussed.
SUPPORTING DETAILS: Provides evidence to prove the main idea that is being discussed. Mention and explain specific things from the documents to prove the main idea is true.
CONCLUDING SENTENCE: Brings closure to the paragraph.
DIRECTIONS: Complete the following outline for your body paragraphs. We will do the first one together and then you will do the rest on your own.
BODY PARAGRAPH ONE: Causes of Exploration
Main Idea: ______________________________

Document evidence: _________________________________

Now that we have written our introductions, and outlined our body paragraphs, we are almost ready to start writing our DBQ essays. BUT, it is important to remember that in our paragraphs we want all of our ideas and details to flow together. In order for our ideas and details to flow in our paragraphs, we must use TRANSITIONS. Transitions link ideas so that they relate to one another. They provide comparison and contrast, and they strengthen and weaken ideas.
Here are some TRANSITIONS to help you link your ideas together in each paragraph and to help you move from one paragraph to another.
