Outline Template

Creating an outline is a good step to take while writing your paper. It allows you to brainstorm new ideas and make sure your paper will be organized, focused, and supported. Many writers find it easier to write from an outline instead of starting from a blank page.

How to use a Outline template?

Your outline will include only the main and supporting ideas of your essay.  This means that you will want to include your thesis, the topic sentences from your supporting paragraphs, and any details that are important.

Thesis- The thesis is the idea that you are trying to prove. Your entire paper should reflect your thesis.  Your thesis will usually be at the end of your introduction.

Topic Sentences- These sentences are the evidence you are using to prove your thesis.  Think of a topic sentence as the thesis of each paragraph; however, your topic sentence usually begins your paragraph.

Support Sentences- These sentences prove your topic sentences.

Conclusion- Your conclusion will reflect back on the rest of your work.  You may briefly mention your topic sentences and restate your thesis.  In an informal outline, you may not want to include conclusion in your outline.  If you must turn in our outline, you should include this paragraph
