**Structure of your paragraph:**

**Sentence 1: TOPIC SENTENCE** eg Humpty Dumpty is completely at fault for falling off the wall.

**Sentence 2: EVIDENCE #1**: eg Humpty Dumpty’s lack of responsibility for himself is highlighted by the poor choice of sitting on the wall knowing full we that he is oval shaped.

**Sentence 3: EXPLANATION**: The fact that Humpty Dumpty is oval shaped would suggest he would be unstable on the wall, it is highly unlikely that he would survive a fall from the height of the wall and that he was perhaps of unsound mind to even be seated on the wall in the first place.

Sentence 4: EVIDENCE #2

Sentence 5: EXPLANATION

If you can give a 3rd example, then do it.
