IELTS: Five Easy steps to plan to write Academic Task 1

How do you paragraph in this task? For many, this is very, very complicated. But it doesn’t always have to be like that. Just follow the steps below:

Step 1: Know how to plan Body Paragraphs

Take notes what to include in:

Body 1: Select main features / general trends (what do all these bars/lines/charts have in common?)

Body 2: Pick 2 differences/extremes and an exception (if any)

Step 2: Paraphrase the question in your first sentence of Introduction

Step 3:   Add another sentence (overview / summary of Body 1+2)

This will tell the reader what to expect next, in the Body.

Step 4: If there is a relationship between two graphs, you can summarise the correlation in one sentence as your summary statement.

Step 5: In case of graph indicating past and future, the past can be your 1st body and the future can be your 2nd. If it is a diagram or process / flowchart, make sure you know the head and the tail, and divide the process into two separate categories, hence two body paragraphs.

 

Remember, if you have two sentences in Introduction, then a Conclusion is not mandatory.
