(Make sure explanation is more detailed example)

Example - Books are better then movies

Point - Everyone knows it's better to read the book than watch the movie

Evidence - For example, the movie mad of 'Wonder' is very different from the book. It leaves out lots of information. In the book the main teacher is Female but in the movie they are Male. Also, the camp incident missed out the information on Auggies hearing aide. 

Explain - This incident makes more sense in the book because he was bullied for having his 'Lobo ears' Which made him look different. It didn't make sense to bully him in the movie without them. Link - For these reasons the book was clearly better than the movie. However, if you haven't read the book you may still enjoy the movie.

MY PARAGRAPH

Point - School uniforms are a waste of time and money, this statement is true because uniform is an unnecessary expense that can be quite expensive. Evidence -  Whilst some families can afford the cost of the uniform, many can not. Some expenses you are looking at are around $90.00 for just the school skirt whereas a pair of leggings from The Warehouse are just $7.00. Explain - People often say it helps children from getting 'bullied' for their own clothes but the actual expense of uniforms are causing more problems than they solve. Not only this but they don't allow individuality and take away kids freedom of expression as they are not allowed to wear what they want or are comfortable in. Link - For the reasons discussed in this text school uniforms are a waste of time and money so they shouldn't be compulsory.
