What should be written in a formal outline?

Here is my "outline" of a formal
outline:


Thesis:


I. Topic
Category 1
A.  Topic Sentence 1
1. 
fact/support/example
2.  fact/support/example
B.  Topic Sentence
2
1.  fact/support/example
2. 
fact/support/example


II. Topic Category 2
A. 
Topic Sentence 3
1.  fact/support/example
2. 
fact/support/example
B.  Topic Sentence 4
1. 
fact/support/example
2. 
fact/support/example


III. Topic Category 3
A. 
Topic Sentence 5
1.  fact/support/example
2. 
fact/support/example
B.  Topic Sentence 6
1. 
fact/support/example
2. 
fact/support/example


Understand that in the above, A,B,C
etc., are complete sentences introducing the body paragraphs which support your thesis.
 Use as many as is necessary.  Also, 1, 2, 3, etc., is the concrete detail that proves
the topic sentence. When you translate the outline into your paper, you need to
synthesize the concrete detail with commentary or explanation of the relevance to the
thesis.
