The Bing, the Bang, and the Bongo: The Five-Paragraph Essay

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Create a five-paragraph essay easily with the bing, the bang, and the bongo method! Learners write an introduction with the thesis containing three parts. Your three body paragraphs then expand upon each part of the thesis. An example is given of a simple five-paragraph essay regarding the Fourth of July being one person's favorite holiday. The use of transitions is also highlighted.
