How should I structure a single paragraph for my essay?

If you have never written a proper essay before, I would recommend the PEEL method where you state your point followed by evidence, elaboration and link back to your argument. I think this is a good start for writing your essay. Always remember to quote evidence and identify literary devices to explain its effect.
