Fun with Creative Summarizing! The typical American is overweight. Loving and consuming our high sweet and high fat foods have made us the most obese people in the world. Obesity leads to diabetes, heart problems, high blood pressure and laziness -- yes, laziness! The extra pounds suck out energy. Instead of taking the stairs, we look for the elevator; instead of taking a walk, we take to the couch. The body becomes much less than what it was intended to be. The toll of an unhealthy diet is huge; five years off one's life is the average. That's the bad news; the good news is that even a small change in your diet (like giving up regular soda pop) for one year will take weight off, which in turn, will automatically make you healthier. Being healthier means vastly improving your quality of life.

Directions: At your table, you each have a copy of a short article describing American eating habits. Your job is to read the article and summarize it by converting it into: 1.A tweet 2.A newspaper headline & sub-headline 3.A promo for an upcoming episode of 60 Minutes 4.A grammatically correct complete sentence 5.A creative and concise format of your own choosing. Ideally, each table member should use a different format. Get ready to share!

The theory of how planets were formed differs from the one generally accepted a couple of decades ago. At that time, it was thought by most astronomers that the planets formed as a result of a wandering star passing too close to the sun and sucking chunks of matter out of its fiery mass. The decline of this theory occurred on the basis of new evidence and new calculation which suggested that the planets developed from random particles which grew larger as they attracted others by their gravity.
