14. Cornell Notes Topic: The 411 of Summary Writing EQ: What is the summary writing process? On your notes….speculate: What does it mean to summarize? Why should you summarize? (what’s it to ya?) How do I….summarize?

15. In this unit we will: (but not all today…phew!) • Learn the “rules” of summary writing • Learn summary writing format • Audience • Using the 6 traits (focus on sentence fluency and word choice) • Rhetorical choices of author/speaker • Summarizing author’s/speaker’s argument or claim • Analyze author’s/speaker’s evidence • Tone

16. Question: What are the “Rules” of summary writing? (You will be able to) Always represent the ideas of the author, not your own. Include the author’s central claim (main idea). Choose primary information that serves your purpose. Represent the article honestly and completely. Use your own words to explain the author’s ideas. If you quote, do it accurately. Never comment on the quality of the information or the quality of the author’s writing.

17. Do as I’m Doing…

18. Making claim: Love is universal (what is meant by “universal”?) Claim: Love is created by chemicals in the brain. 1. Have you just fallen madly in love? Thus began the announcement I posted on a bulletin board for psychology students on the Stony Brook campus of the State University of New York. I had come to believe that romantic love is a universal human feeling, produced by specific chemicals and networks in the brain. But exactly which ones? Determined to shed some light on this magic, I launched a multipart project in 1996 to collect scientific data on the chemistry and brain circuitry of romantic love. How HF tends to prove her claim Circle words I need to define Electrical system

19. Title of text: “Your Brain In Love” Author: Helen Fisher • Type of Text: Article Paragraph(s) #: 1 • What is the author doing? (Use a verb such as: introducing, defining, asserting, illustrating, or some other verb which accurately describes what the author is doing): • Introducing • What is this paragraph about? What does the author say? (Main ideas, claims, evidence, and any other essential information): • Fisher is making the claim that love is a universal human emotion and it is chemically created by the brain. • Fisher will prove her claim by conducting some sort of experiment where she collects scientific data on brain mechanics and chemistry of love.

20. Complete paragraph 2 in your LMG PIVOT! (5 min?)
