How to write a 5 paragraph essay

How to write a 5 paragraph essay:
A 5 paragraph essay needs three different things: the introduction, the main body and the conclusion. 

In the introduction you want to get the readers into your subject. I suggest that in your introduction you don't say "This essay is going to be about..." That annoys people. I mean you're going to say it in the next three paragraphs so why say the same thing twice? There just no reason for it. Instead start with a question. Example:
Are chickens dinosaurs? (I didn't do much research on this but what I read said that they are!) Then answer the question. 
Tip: I suggest that the last sentence in every paragraph leads to the next subject (paragraph). Example: The eggs are as good as the food you put into it. 
 So in this example the first paragraph was about the eggs and do you see how I sort of changed the subject to food? Well, that's what I suggest you do at the end of each paragraph!

The main body consists of the main points. (This is three paragraphs long.) Every paragraph in the main body should have at least one  main point. Main point examples 
*Chickens are fun and easy to keep
*Rats did not cause the Black Death

In the conclusion you briefly say what you said in the whole essay. Instead of saying "What I said in this essay was..."
Say something like this "So, chickens are easy to keep..."
And that should make an A plus essay!:D 
I will post the essay I'm writing when it is finished!

Here is my essay: Sorry it took so long to post I just finished it.

Chicken essay By: Coco Kinyak

Ever think of getting chickens? Do you think it would cost too much or you don't have the space or time for them? Well, actually, they're not much work, they don't need a lot of space, and keeping them doesn't cost much. You and your kids will get lots of things out of raising chickens. Not to mention how fun it is!

You might not believe me that it's cheap, there isn't much space needed, and it doesn't need much time put into it. This is a common concern. Some people don't get chickens because of this. All that's needed daily is: the poop needs to be scooped, you need to feed them twice a day, and they need to have enough water. That's basically all you have to do! You do have to clean out the coop thoroughly once a month, too. But every day if you put 30 minutes at the most into keeping chickens they'll be happy and healthy. The cost of getting started with chickens (coop, food, containers for food and water, treats, and bedding) will be a couple hundred dollars. After you pay for those things it'll be pretty cheap to keep them. Monthly costs after you have purchased the main things are about $10 to $20. Food prices vary depending on where you live, but usually a big bag of food costs about $10 to $15. The space needed for each chicken in the chicken coop is about three to four square feet per chicken, plus a chicken run. The chicken run should have about 10 to 20 square feet per chicken. If you don't have enough room for a run then make the coop a little bigger, like 10 square feet per chicken.

Why would you want chickens anyway?? There is a lot you get out of keeping chickens! If you have a garden or you are planning on making one the chickens' poop is the garden's new fertilizer! This will keep your garden looking great! The most obvious things that you get from chickens are the eggs. They're not like the eggs from the store. These eggs will be much better in protein and in nutrition! They will certainly be more fresh. And the chickens will be treated much better than chickens that produce most store-bought eggs. You will also get the great companionship of keeping your own flock!

Chickens are a great project or pet for kids. They'll learn more about chickens. Kids will enjoy taking care of them. And most of all your kid will learn how to be responsible! Tell them they are going to do all the work. Then, when they need to do some work to keep the chickens healthy get the kids to do it! Even if they don't want to, they need to get the work done. The chickens will be their pet. This means they have to pay for the food, gather the eggs whenever it's needed, clean the coop, feed them, and everything else, too. This is a great responsibility.

Anyone can keep chickens. It doesn't matter how much money, time, or space you have. You get many things out of raising them. Your kids will enjoy keeping them. And the whole family will learn.
