Allison:

While the main idea is usually in the first sentence, the next most common placement is in the last sentence of a paragraph. The author gives supporting information first and then makes the point in the last sentence.

So just basically say, "The main idea is usually in the first sentence, written by the author and then makes the point on the last sentence of the paragraph".
