The directions says "At least 10 supporting details go beyond Main Events" does that mean at least 10 facts altogether in the essay or 10 supporting details in each paragraph?

Usually "supporting details" refers to the supporting facts for each paragraph, but I can't imagine writing a paper like that! Perhaps what is meant is ten supporting details for the thesis statement, arranged in paragraphs with about 3 for each of 3 topic sentences that will form the internal paragraphs.
