An expository is a way of explaining something or portraying a message. When writing an expository paragraph you need to engage your critical thinking skills. When writing an expository paragraph there is usually always a critical point which is being explained. Almost all expository paragraphs have an argument that needs evidence and support to back it up. When writing an expository paragraph the purpose is to persuade others of the conclusion you came upon but you cannot do that without supporting your argument with evidence; your evidence can be person experiences, or of others.
There are different parts of an expository paragraph: the topic sentence, support and analysis, and the concluding sentence. The topic sentence is the controlling idea of the paragraph. It is the main part of the paragraph that establishes the topic and the purpose. Then there is the support and analysis. These are the sentences between the topic and conclusion sentences. You need to provide support to your topic sentence to back it up. Which includes examples, experiences, and proof of what you are trying to convince. Finally there is the concluding sentence. In this sentence you are re-emphasizing the topic sentence's focus and purpose. You never restate your topic sentence. But you do need to have the same idea as in your topic sentence.
