It must match what the reader finds in the body and conclusion.
Some people write the introduction first, while others write
a rough intro, then make sure it matches the rest of the essay,
before re-writing the introduction. Experiment - it's your
essay!

This is where you develop your
arguments to support your point of view on the task.
Each point from your plan is formed into a paragraph and the
paragraphs fit together. Paragraphs can argue, or describe,
analyse to bring in new ideas you wish to explain, to give
examples, to compare to another idea you have read about perhaps.
Paragraphs are built by sentences which each do a job.
The topic sentence: a point you want to make
Explaining sentence: says what you mean by this point, gives
more details
Expanding sentence: More details such as why or how, or an
example (don't forget to include in-text referencing)
Concluding sentence: the firm conclusion to the point, ties
the paragraph together and/or to the assignment question.
