Answers:
Yes, you have the correct formula for your five paragraph essay.
An essay is a discussion about something. You focus on one particular topic and stay with it. It is usually backed up by references and is definitely non-fiction.
A story can be fictional or non-fictional, but relates a tale about something. It can involved people, use quotations, be set anywhere in the universe, and take you wherever your imgination goes.
A paragraph is a short piece of writing, that is concerned with only one aspect of one topic. For example,if you were to write an essay on stock car racing, there are many facets to it. You would write about the kinds of cars that are used. That would be a paragraph (or a separate paragraph for each car) but you wouldn't discuss the length of the track or the slope of the turns or the system of judging or awarding points, or the prizes that go to the winner -- only the kind of cars that are used. The other stuff would be in different paragraphs.
When you string a group of related paragraphs together, you have an essay, if it is research-based, or a story if it is something you are recounting. Read any article in your local newspaper and see how the paragraphs follow in order, each one amplifying what has been said before.
The easiest way to write is to give yourself an outline. It doesn't have to be fancy, just a few words, so you know where you are going with your topic.
good luck to you.
The format for your essay is correct. Make sure the intro has a "thesis" (the point you're trying to make), break that thesis down into 2 or 3 paragraphs to prove your point, additional info...etc., then lay a smackdown in your conclusion by re-wording the points you made while re-stating the thesis.
My outlines are usually:
Intro (Thesis)
point 1, point 2, point 3
Paragraph 1
Point 1
point 1 a)
point 1 b)
point 1 c)
Paragraph 2
Point 2
point 2 a)
point 2 b)
point 2 c)
Paragraph 3
Point 3
point 3 a)
point 3 b)
point 3 c)
Conclusion (re-state thesis using points 1,2 and 3)
As you go down the outline and fill in the information, you'll notice that you are done with your essay faster than you thought.
