Question on how to organize an essay?

I finally finished reading the book for my summer reading- AP US History. Now I have to write an essay, only two pages so not a big deal. I understand the question and everything, I’m just lost on how to organize the essay itself, I like having a solid, basic five paragraph format. (Intro, three body paragraphs supporting the thesis, conclusion) Here’s the question:

“Human memory is never as simple as historical fact.” Explain this quotation, discuss how it has an impact on the work of historians in a two page typed paper. Use specific references to the book.

Can anyone help? I can’t even form a thesis statement without figuring out how to organize this thing =/

I would first write a thesis statement which is a preview of what your about to right. I would also use mla format, double space and make your margins 1 -in. then go in to detail that a historical fact is one thing that happened but our mind will go beyond the point causing us to be more complicated than the fact. Also when doing references make sure you classify it, ex(book,pg5) also do a work sited page and I will guarantee you an A+! (If you ever need anymore help go to Encarta.com or sparknotes.com)
