The first sentence should include the thesis of your paragraph.
The three middle sentences should give 3 supporting facts to prove your thesis.
The last sentence should be a conclusion showing how these facts support your thesis.
The outline should look like this
A. Thesis
a. fact
b. fact
c. fact
B. Conclusion
