DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN ESSAY,A PARAGRAPH AND EXAPNSION OF IDEA.
AN ESSAY A PARAGRAPH EXPANSION OF IDEA An essay is a formal writing sample of a given topic composed of multiple paragraphs. Essays are focused around a central idea that are broken up into sub-ideas which are written in paragraphs. An essay is made up of paragraphs. There will be disagreements on the outline of it, but traditionally this is how an essay breaks down. Essays are focused around a central idea that are broken up into sub-ideas which are written in paragraphs. By contrast, a paragraph is shorter and by virtue of this does not have as many requirements. While the paragraph contains a topic sentence that introduces the controlling idea. however, while the paragraph is singular in its function and focus ,. a descriptive paragraph may bring in specific examples that work to describe some topic. . If you want to think of it in a comparative way, the topic sentence is the thesis statement of a paragraph. Its generated from particular ideas or proverbs. I n the context of the proverb. what the proverb means, we should look for a suitable example to illustrate it . ‘Do not judge the book by its cover’ similar to ‘All that glitters is not precious’. Use summing up words or phrases to indicate that you have finished the expansion Let the reader know that you are signing off.
A thesis statement for an essay is longer and more detailed than the topic sentence at the beginning of a paragraph . In a paragraph, each subsequent sentence builds upon the point made in the topic sentence; in an essay, the first sentence in each paragraph discusses points made in the thesis statement . Paragraphs and essays differ in their length. Paragraphs are typically between five and six sentences long. They're composed of a topic sentence and four or five supporting details. Essays contain at least five paragraphs; they're composed of an introductory paragraph (which includes the thesis statement), at least three supporting paragraphs and a conclusion paragraph . Both paragraphs and essays must end with a conclusion, but the type of conclusion differs. Paragraphs must end with a concluding sentence that states the basic point of the paragraph. It should not rephrase or reiterate the topic sentence. Essays end with a conclusion paragraph that summarizes the content of the essay and reiterates the thesis statement with different phrasing.
