THE IMPORTANCE OF
MAIN IDEA AND
SUPPORTING DETAILS
MAIN IDEA
The main idea is important because it
can help the reader to have a better
understanding of the paragraph's
topic. When the reader manages to
identify the main point, they probably
can already know what will happen
next. So, it is important to know the
main idea in the paragraph.
SUPPORTING DETAILS
Supporting details are important to
explain the main idea. By using
supporting details in a paragraph, the
whole context would be more clear. A
clear topic will make the readers
become attached to the essay
because they can understand the
content of the text. So, writers need to
include supporting details in their
writing.
