To put it succinctly, as one of my math professors used to say:

First: Tell 'em what your gonna tell 'em.

Second: Tell 'em.

Finally: Tell 'em what you told 'em.

To be serious now -

First:
Write a thesis statement letting your audience know what you are going to say. It can be as short as one sentence, or an entire paragraph long if you are writing about a complex subject.

Then:
Write the body of your essay along several main points you want to cover. It's a good idea to write up a short outline to congeal your thoughts before doing this. Writing a topic sentence for each paragraph can also be helpful. Doing both of these will help you to focus on what you consider important and relevant to what you want to say and eliminate the chaff, so to speak.

Finally:
Write a summarizing sentence or paragraph which distills the essence of what you said in the body of your essay. A good conclusion stays focused on what was covered in the essay. Don't introduce extraneous ideas or points which you haven't covered in the body of your essay. If you do, this will lead your audience to believe that you had unfinished business which should have been covered earlier.

One hint - use spell check when writing your essAys...

otherwise
introduction (state what you plan on saying)
text (what you want to say, different point per paragraph)
conclusion (restate the introduction using different words, do not state any new information not covered in your text)
