For example, what did he or she discover? The second paragraph should discuss his or her childhood. Where did he or she grow up; how many siblings did she or he have; what did his or her parents do for a living; what was she or he interested in as a child? The third paragraph should discuss his or her adulthood; did he or she have children, did she or he become ill, did he or she marry; what happened him or her as an adult. The fourth paragraph should discuss education; schools and areas of study. Finally, the last paragraph should summarize the entire essay. Each paragraph must have at least five sentences.
