Introduction to PEEL Paragraphs

Effective paragraph writing is essential for clear communication. The PEEL method helps writers organize their ideas logically. A PEEL paragraph begins with a Point, which states the main idea. Then, Evidence supports this point with facts or quotes. An Explanation elaborates on how the evidence relates to the point. Finally, a Link connects the paragraph back to the overall argument or transitions to the next idea.
