What should my introduction paragraph contain for my research paper?
I think having your thesis statement in the intro paragraph should be enough. Your thesis needs to have the three main talking points + some sort of explanation of what your writing is going to be about. You have these things. I agree about it not being very good, no offense. If it’s a research paper you wouldn’t refer to yourself. Perhaps something like… “The Moon Deities of Greek mythology bring up several interesting questions such as, what were their relations, how did they become deities, and what were their other roles?” If your teacher wants you to add something after that, write one sentence about each talking point with two of the main details of that talking point, like… The Moon Deities earned their powers through ____ and ____. You have to make it work for what information you have =).
