Summarizing Getting to the Point

Summary Summaries are not a place for… Short account of the central ideas of a text Summaries are not a place for… Opinions Background knowledge Personal information

How To Summarize Your Answer… Read the text. Don’t let big words scare you. Ask, “What was this text about?” Your Answer… Should be a complete sentences 5-7 Should cover main point and key ideas Should be in your own words Shouldn’t just be a word or two

Should It Go in My Summary? Only major ideas and necessary information should go into a summary. Ask yourself: “Do you need this information to understand the text?” If the answer is yes, put it into your own words in your summary.

Main Idea and Key Points The main idea is what the text is about. Key points are arguments or information that is used to support the main idea. Key points may be developed or elaborated with supporting details. Your summary should only include main ideas and key points, not supporting details.

Example Text A penny for your thoughts?  If it’s a 1943 copper penny, it could be worth as much as fifty thousand dollars.  In 1943, most pennies were made out of steel since copper was needed for World War II, . .   Another rarity is . . T These pennies were mistakenly double stamped, so they have overlapping dates and letters.  If it’s uncirculated, it’d easily fetch $25,000 at an auction.  Now that’s a pretty penny.   so, the 1943 copper penny is ultra-rare. the 1955 double die penny.

Incorrect Example Response 2 This text is about pennies. This response is too short. It does not include key ideas. Incorrect Example Response 2 The 1943 copper penny is worth a lot of money. Copper was hard to get during the war so there aren’t many of them. The 1955 double die penny is worth a lot too. These pennies were stamped twice on accident. Too much unnecessary stuff. Main idea is not clear.

Correct Example Response This text is about two very rare and valuable pennies: the 1943 copper penny and the 1955 double die penny. Includes key information. Doesn’t include unnecessary information Is a complete sentence.
