None of those things are included in this outline • For this outline you will write your thesis statement which should include each of your two to four subclaims that support your stance on the controversial issue. • You will need to turn each of those subclaims into a topic sentence for a body paragraph. • Then, for each paragraph you will include at least one piece of quoted or paraphrased evidence from your research to support the reason in your topic sentence.
