Topic for Project 2

The topic I would like to talk about for project two is five paragraph essays. I have always wondered why? Why do we always have to write five paragraphs? What is so good about them? The questions are always running through my head what it is about them. I am hoping to find out about what other authors and other writers have to say about five paragraphs essay and where they originally came from. Also I am curious to know if it is changing today in education. There is so much I want to know about the five paragraph length and I think it is a perfect topic with my passion for knowledge on it.
