I need help writing a 5 paragraph persuasive essay. The topic is: Agree/Disagree, stories with Suprise endings using situational irony is the best. I agree, but I'm homeschooled and need help

I. Introduction
     a. Introductory Hook Statement
     b. Background on topic
     c. Three part thesis (3 topics you want to address in the paper)
II. Topic 1
     a. Mini-thesis (What you want to say in this paragraph)
     b. Example 1 and reason why
     c. Example 2 and reason why
     d. Conclusion (What you said in the paragraph)
III. Topic 2
     a. Mini-thesis (What you want to say in this paragraph)
     b. Example 1 and reason why
     c. Example 2 and reason why
     d. Conclusion (What you said in the paragraph)
IV. Topic 3
     a. Mini-thesis (What you want to say in this paragraph)
     b. Example 1 and reason why
     c. Example 2 and reason why
     d. Conclusion (What you said in the paragraph)
V. Conclusion
     a. Restate thesis from paragraph 1
     b. Summarize paper in a few sentances
