When to use it
Use it when drafting any body paragraph in an essay to make sure each paragraph has a clear claim, evidence, analysis, and a closing tie-back.
Example
Point: The author uses imagery to convey loss. Evidence: quote the relevant lines. Explain: analyze what the image suggests.
Link: show how this supports the thesis about grief.
Common mistake
Omitting the Link sentence and ending on the Explain. Without linking back to the thesis or question, the paragraph feels disconnected from the essay's central argument.
