Paraphrasing is putting a section from the original material into your own words.
Paraphrased material is usually shorter than the original passage. It takes an overview of the whole topic.
You could paraphrase one scene, though. Practice paraphrasing the scene where Harry buys his first wand.
Example of Paraphrasing Pretend Article from the AJC: All the teachers at Dyer Elementary will be attending a lecture on Thursday at the University of Georgia. The famous author, J. K. Rowling, will be speaking to the elementary teachers and staff. The lecture will conclude with an autograph session and a reception in the auditorium. This conference will be sponsored by The Steven Spielberg Council for School Libraries, and each school librarian attending will receive the entire set of novels by J. K. Rowling.
Paraphrase: • The author of Harry Potter will speak to the Dyer Elementary teachers and staff on Thursday. They will also attend a reception immediately afterward. • Atlanta Journal & Constitution
Summarizing involves putting the main idea into your own words.
Summaries are much shorter than the original and take an overview of the material.
What is the Harry Potterseries about? The series is about a boy who discovers he is a wizard, then goes to wizard school for seven years where he must battle an evil character. That is a summary of 4,175 pages!
Let’s practice summarizing: • Pretend Article from the AJC: • All the teachers at Dyer Elementary will be attending a lecture on Thursday at the University of Georgia. The famous author, J. K. Rowling, will be speaking to the elementary teachers and staff. The lecture will conclude with an autograph session and a reception in the auditorium. This conference will be sponsored by The Steven Spielberg Council for School Libraries, and each school librarian attending will receive the entire set of novels by J. K. Rowling.
Summary • Due to a lecture offered to all teachers, there will be no school on Thursday. • Atlanta Journal & Constitution
