how are supporting ideas helpful in writing an outline
The best supporting ideas are the ones about which you have some knowledge. If you do not know about them, you cannot do a good job writing about them. Don't weaken the essay with ineffective argument. [ Understanding the supporting details helps you understand the main idea.
You can find the supporting details that support a main idea in many different
places in the lesson.
Look at:
• the sentences that make up paragraphs and sections.
• graphics including illustrations, photographs, charts, graphs, and maps.
• the captions, or writing that explains the graphics.
• sidebars, or boxes on the
side of the text that provide additional
information about the topic.
• vocabulary words, including words that are in bold print, italics, or that
are highlighted. These words are often important supporting details
that support the main idea.
