&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;[[file:thematicbodyparagraph.jpg|300px|left|]] The body paragraphs need to thoroughly address all elements of the task by: demonstrating an understanding of the theme; incorporating relevant facts, examples, and details; and presenting everything in an organized manner.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is where the completion of a pre-writing table really pays off! If constructed and filled in properly, this table will form the basis of organizing the body paragraphs of the thematic essay response.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[file:bodypthematic.jpg|400px|center|]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Body Paragraph's Example ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Task:&lt;br /&gt;
* Choose two (2) philosophers or leaders and for each;&lt;br /&gt;
* Describe the society or culture that was affected and;&lt;br /&gt;
* Explain the change that occurred either positively or negatively '''&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The table above formed the basis for the content included in these body paragraphs. It has allowed the writer to visualize the flow of the essay before committing to a single paragraph to paper. The facts in the table should be expanded with details designed to thoroughly address all aspects of the task.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''You would repeat this process for each body paragraph'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Adding Detail to Your Topic ==&lt;br /&gt;
Most students struggle with finding additional information to write about when exploring a topic. One strategy to use is P.E.R.S.I.A.&lt;br /&gt;
P = Political aspects of the topic (government, laws, military, type of government)&lt;br /&gt;
E = Economic aspects of the topic (trade, trade routes, economic system (capitalism, mercantilism, communism, etc), barter, etc)&lt;br /&gt;
R = Religion also known as Belief Systems (Hinduism, Taoism, Confucianism, Buddhism, Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Animism, Sikhism)&lt;br /&gt;
S = Social aspects of history (social class, culture, traditions, etc.)&lt;br /&gt;
I = Intellectual aspects of history (science, art, architecture, math, technology, philosophy, literature)&lt;br /&gt;
A = Area/Geography (location, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== 3rd Body Paragraph ==&lt;br /&gt;
In order to receive full points, you must analyze the topics you selected. &lt;br /&gt;
