  6. Summary • Purpose: to summarize the text with clear identification of the main idea(s) and most significant details, in the student’s own words, that clearly reflects underlying meaning. • What does this mean? • “Summarize the text with clear identification of the main idea(s) and most significant details” = • In your essay you will explain the information given in the article. You will highlight the most important points that the article makes. • “In the student’s own words” = • You will not copy words from the article, but will rephrase the same ideas in different words (think – smart synonyms). • “That clearly reflects underlying meaning” = • The article is not just giving you a list of facts; the article is also telling you the opinion of the writer – sometimes through direct writing and sometimes through hints or clues. You will identify the opinion of the writer, and include their opinion (NOT your own) in your summary

  7. Steps to Summary Success • Actively read the article. • Write (annotate) directly on the article. • Visualize what the article is explaining. • Repeat in your mind what the article is saying (in your own words). • Question what will be written next, then search for those facts as you read. • Review your annotations (underlining key sentences and words, summary statements next to each body paragraph, etc.) • Brainstorm your response on a new or scrap piece of paper. • Create a bubble chart with the main idea in the center, and supporting details in the surrounding bubbles. • Make a bullet-point outline noting the most important details of the article. • Write your summary essay!
