INTRODUCTION
State what you are going to achieve in the article, and how you are going to do it (this gives the teacher cues as to what is going to come... we love that!)

EG. The current professional women's volleyball uniforms are both unpractical and degrading to women. This essay will explore the reasons why this is so, and offer a suggestion for improvements. (This was for a student's HPE essay)

BODY
Go into each detail, eg:

PARAGRAPH 1
Topic sentence: Firstly, the uniforms are unpractical.
Supporting Evidence/fact 1: They ride up all the time
SE2: They don't protect the athlete's bodies from the sun.
SE3: "
Concluding statement.

PARAGRAPH 2: Secondly, the uniforms are degrading to women.
SE1: They show a LOT of flesh.
SE2: Takes the focus off the level of sporting ability.
SE3: They make women feel self conscious (especially as cameras etc are around).

PARAGRAPH 3: Suggestions for improvement- eg. have different uniforms and players pick.
