As with the first paper, how you approach the essay is unique to you, there is no template. However, the basic essay format of an introductory paragraph, drafted or revise after the finished draft to reflect the final paper, a solid body laying out in good paragraphs the key points and arguments you need to make, and most importantly, the lessons you want the reader to learn, and any takeaway you may have, is expected.
The conclusion is the reason for most academic and real world papers, and is never just a single block of text, or single paragraph. I expect multiple paragraphs for your lessons and takeaway, along with a closing paragraph. The body and conclusion are mutually supportive.
If you discuss something in the body, then it must relate to or support your lessons and takeaway, if you conclude something in the lessons and takeaway, those must be developed and supported in the body.
