Clustering or diagramming: Sample of brainstorming and organization
 
The actual organization and writing would look something like this:
  1. Paragraph #1: three to four sentences are created from the "red dot" topics.  For example: "There are several reasons why I am sick all the time.  Not getting enough sleep and poor diet lowers my resistance.  Touching germ infected things, also, transports a bug."  The sentences in the blue above would be your "introductory paragraph."
  2. Paragraph #2: Five to six sentences that explain and provide examples about saffe.
  3. Paragraph #3: Five to six sentences that explain and provide examples about people.
  4. Paragraph #4: five to six sentences that explain and provide examples about friends.
  5. Paragraph #4: Two to five sentences that restate what you said in Paragraph #1, the introductory paragraph.
