As always, use our standard plan for your essay, so,

Introduction that narrows to a thesis, citing any fact used, then body paragraphs on our paragraph plan of

main idea/topic sentence

quote from the reading

analysis (how and why your main idea and quote come together to support your ideas)…and then conclusion.

Remember, too, to cite in full MLA format, so cite all facts and quotes, and be sure to include a works cited.
