Begin with your main idea. You can focus on remarkable creatures in general, strange mammals, weird creatures from the sea or choose animals based on location.
Make a list of sub-topics that support your main idea. A paper on remarkable mammals might include sub-topics based on location like the Americas, Europe and Asia. Each sub-topic will be a paragraph in your report.
Write your thesis statement. A thesis statement is a sentence that states your report's main idea and includes each sub-topic. A thesis statement on remarkable mammals might be, "Strange mammals exist in the Americas, Europe and Asia."
Begin your report with a first paragraph establishing your main idea. Include your thesis statement.
Write a paragraph for each sub-topic listed in your thesis statement and supply details. A paragraph on remarkable mammals from the Americas might include opossums, sloths, star-nosed moles and the axolotl salamander.
Finish your report with a paragraph re-stating your main idea. Summarize your topic and share with the reader why this is important. Re-word your thesis statement and include it in the final paragraph.
