Once you have written your summary , bring it to my office hours for correction.
I. What is a Summary?
A summary has
several important features:
1)
it’s short
2) It talks
about the main idea
3) It provides
important information (e.g. examples) that make the main idea easy to
understand
4)
It excludes unnecessary
information
5) It uses your
own words, though some key words from the original story are acceptable
6) A summary
should start by referring to the
original source and giving the main idea
and focus.
