is there any difference in the way i should write a five page paper than the way i write a 5 paragraph paper? are the basics of the paper still the same, except theres more develpment ideas (body paragraphs)?

i started a little while ago and im on page 4 now and its very easy to get enough info on it, especially since we got a huge packet full of info. but i tried to make the body flow together alot and i think it does so far. thanks for the help though.

yeah i second that tranistions are the key. Just go into detail about each paragraph you talk about. it should be many more than 5 paragraphs when u r done. What grade are you in?

yeah it shouldnt be too hard, your only a sophmore. Each topic should be its on 5 paragraph essay. So think about 1 page per topic you are refferencing, use citations, even if you dont have to, you earn points with the teacher. I remember my senior yaer in HS i wrote a 13 page paper, i was proud.
