What's a Multi Paragraph?

A multi-paragraph composition is a piece of writing on a specific topic longer than one paragraph. It can be expository, descriptive, persuasive, narrative, or a combination of these four types. It is sometimes referred to as an essay. It typically develops an idea in greater depth than a paragraph.

How many paragraphs is a multi-paragraph?

A multi-paragraph essay simply means the paper is two or more paragraphs. A common structure for an extended essay includes five paragraphs.

How do you write a multi-paragraph?

Here's how:
  1. First, write a topic sentence that summarizes your point. This is the first sentence of your paragraph.
  2. Next, write your argument, or why you feel the topic sentence is true.
  3. Finally, present your evidence (facts, quotes, examples, and statistics) to support your argument.
